I am confused about B.Tech and B.Sc in biotechnology, am I eligible for these courses?

Question

NITIN DESHMUKH · Answer

Yes, you can go for B.Tech or B.Sc which ever is your choice of studies. B.Tech is more technical as compare to B.Sc. B.Tech in Bio-Tech is still a niche course in India and fairly good opportunities for engineers in the field of research and development.

For B.Sc. In biotechnology candidate must have passed a minimum aggregate score of 60% in Class 12th studies with Physics Chemistry and Biology as the main subject to opt B.Sc. Biotechnology course. B.Tech biotechnology has a minimum eligibility score is 60% in +2 exams with Physics Chemistry and Maths as the main subject from a recognised university. B.Tech biotechnology is a UG course in Engineering. B.Sc. In biotechnology is a three-year UG course. B.Tech biotechnology is a four-year UG course. In some colleges, they have an entrance exam for this course. If you choose the course then you should choose the best college for your studies.

B.Tech is a course that focuses on covering different aspects and fields related to engineering. B.Sc. In Biotechnology is a course that focuses on engineering to utilize it to create different outcomes and products related to welfare of humans. Yes, a person securing 70+ percentile in boards is eligible to enroll in these courses,. .

Himanshu Meena · Answer

You should go for B.Tech in Biotechnology. The three-year B.Sc. course is conducted as any other Science subject and the students can go for the M.Sc course and take up research later. B.Tech course is the better option. Selection will be on the basis of the engineering entrance examination and marks obtained in plus two or equivalent examinations in Science subjects. Students who pass the qualifying examination with at least 50 percent marks in mathematics and as much in mathematics, Physics Chemistry and biotechnology, computer Science, or Biology took together are eligible to take the entrance examination.

Sunita Singh · Answer

The major difference between any B.Sc. Degree and B.Tech degree is the fact that admission to B.Tech is a professional engineering degree and only approved engineering institutes are authorized by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the University Grants Commission (India) (UGC) to give this degree; B.Sc. However, is an academic course which is available in almost every college of India. So B.Tech degree has a higher brand value and employability quotient. The course of B.Sc. Biotechnology is of 3 years while that of B.Tech Biotechnology extends over a span of 4 years. LPU provides both B.Sc. And B.Tech degree in Biotechnology The eligibility criteria for both are as follow B.Sc. Biotechnology - 60% in Chemistry Physics Maths/Biology + LPUNest B.Tech Biotechnology - 60% with English Physics maths/biology, Chemistry +LPUNest Biotechnology covers many different disciplines (eg. Genetics, biochemistry, molecular Biology etc. ). New technologies and products are developed every year within the areas of eg. Medicine (development of new medicines and therapies), agriculture (development of genetically modified plants, biofuels, biological treatment) or industrial biotechnology (production of chemicals, paper, textiles and food). No, NEET is not required for admission in B.Tech Biotechnology. As per my knowledge in LPU the eligibility criteria for B.Tech is 60% in 10+2 with English Physics maths/biology + LPU NEST exam. W of the major highlights are : 1. LPU school of biotechnology provides an ultimate learning experience with a commitment to innovation. Various guest lecturers from experts and field visits are organized by the school. 2. The school encourages R & D activities for students to get the benefit. Many students from LPU have successfully collaborated with foreign universities and research institutions. The dept. Also inculcates entrepreneurship opportunities to build job providers of the future. 3. Instill advanced knowledge in the major areas of Biotechnology such as Animal Tissue Culture, Plant Tissue Culture, Microbiology, Genetics an Bioinformatics. 4. Training, projects, and guest lecturers collaborated with industries help to learn from real-life situations. 5. Seminar and Project driven courses are designed to enhance technical and presentation skills. 6. Minor elective gives the students a choice to develop expertise in the interdisciplinary areas of interest, for example, CSE/IT, Management and ECE.

A few universities offer a five-year integrated M.Sc. Biotechnology course for plus two students in the Science stream. The biotechnology industry is witnessing good growth worldwide. India will have a competitive advantage in the industry since it is knowledge-intensive. A biotechnologist, depending on the area of specialisation, can find jobs in biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies or in chemical, agricultural, and allied industries. Research institutes and laboratories provide good job opportunities for those with M.Tech and Ph.D. degrees. Teaching is a good option. Study of, and employment in, biotechnology is research-oriented. You can do biotechnology related courses from: University of Hyderabad-School of Life Sciences, University of Mumbai-Institute of Chemical Technology, National Dairy Research Institute Rajiv Gandhi Center for Biotechnology.
