After the completion of a master's programme in clinical embryology, an aspirant can pursue further research studies focusing on reproductive and biological sciences. Moreover, a candidate can also research further in the field of biomedical sciences through the assistance of reproduction or clinical work industries. LPU is the best for this course and aspirants that will study from LPU are offered prominent jobs by both the governmental and private sectors. However, the approximate salary varies from one organisation to another. The salary package mainly depends on factors like job profile, the experience of the candidate, and expertise. Private or corporate sectors have been offering a better salary range to embryologists. However, relevant factors like expertise, learning experience, and years of practice are often considered in the corporate sector as well. Apart from governmental and private sectors, certain self-established and self-running reproductive and embryologist centers have also been founded. These medical centers mainly focus on the study, research, practice, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with health issues related to female reproductive systems, sexual well-being, and infertility. These centers offer better salary ranges as compared to the governmental or private sectors. Therefore, their success rate is better. Infertility clinics have been resolving the issues of patients with a better success rate since they are mainly dedicated to the study and practice of clinical embryology and reproductive studies. Addressing your second query regarding eligibility- As per the university website, the eligibility criteria is that the candidate should be pass with 60% aggregate marks in Bachelors Degree in (Applied Medical Science or Biosciences or Medical Science and Allied Medical or Life Sciences) or equivalent. So, I recommend you to grab your seat as soon as possible.

Embryologists most commonly work with physicians to assist their patients with reproductive health issues and clinical research. Clinical embryologists are responsible for retrieving eggs, assisting with in vitro fertilization, maintaining clinical records and running tests on eggs. They often work in hospitals and fertility clinics, but may also perform laboratory work or seek posts in academia. Embryologists need a Bachelor's degree in Biology or biomedicine and a master's degree in reproductive Science or clinical Science, though some embryologists earn a Ph.D. or MD as well. A few such scientists possess both a doctorate and medical degree. Courses specific to this field include biochemistry, molecular Biology endocrinology, infertility, genetics and in vitro fertilization. A Bachelor's degree typically takes 4-5 years to achieve, while a master's takes an additional two years of study and a Ph.D. is another three years. Students pursuing a medical doctorate need to also complete residency and internship programs. Embryologists often work in positions involving either clinical practice or research. Regardless of the type of position, most embryologists need skills for both positions. Thus, they need to be able to conduct academic research and write papers, understand advances in medical Science and counsel those who seek reproductive help. My friend has done M.Sc. In Clinical Embrylogy. Let me share some insights: The demand of trained embryologists has been increasing across India to assist in reproductive fertilization techniques in-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) centres. The programme Clinical Embryology will open the new career opportunities for Under Graduates candidates of life Sciences in the field of embryology. The programme will assist the students to gain in-depth knowledge of reproductive systems of the males as well as females, associated disorders responsible for infertility and assisted reproductive techniques. Eligibility :Pass with 60% aggregate marks in Bachelors Degree in (Applied Medical Science or Biosciences or Medical Science and Allied Medical or Life Sciences) or equivalent.
