I have done M.Sc in organic chemistry. What is the scope in the same?

Hi Rahul, M.Sc in Chemistry enables you to take up a career in academics with schools and colleges or a position in Research &amp; Development with Pharmaceutical companies and laboratories. You may apply for teaching positions in various schools in the country. You could teach at the undergraduate level or do research after clearing the NET .If you would like to get into research, then you should do a PhD. After completion of this doctorate you may either get in to full time research or again into teaching assignments at the post graduate level. You could go in for a MBA in Pharma. An MBA will prepare you for a corporate career in various sectors in sales/marketing profile, HR roles, finance jobs or operations jobs. The National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER), Mohali, is a reputed centre providing full-fledged facilities for higher education in pharmaceuticals, including management research. NIPER conducts an MBA course in Pharmaceutical Management of two-year duration. The Indian Institute of Pharmaceutical Marketing (IIPM) Lucknow offers a two-year MBA (Pharma Marketing) course in the distance education mode.

If you wish to join the corporate sector, you can find jobs in Research &amp; Development with Pharmaceutical Industries or Laboratories. Leading companies include Dr Reddy's Laboratories, Panacea Biotech, Lupin Laboratories, Nicholas Piramal, Wockhardt, Sun Pharma, Orchid Chemicals, Sun Pharma and others. However, if you wish to stay with academics a PhD would be the best for better career prospects. You could even choose doing a course in clinical research/ Bioinformatics/ IPR etc. The choice you make should depend on your long term and short term career objectives, aptitude, ability, personality and interests. Hope it helps. Please feel free to revert. Wish you luck.
