I have got 89% in PCBE in 12th. As I am a bio student can I opt for B.Tech food technology or B.Tech in biotechnology? Which has good scope?

Hi Simran, You can go for both as both the branches are for Bio students. Biotechnology is a branch that has come up very fast. On one hand, it caters to the industrial sector such as food and beverages industry, textiles industry, biological products, medicines and pharmaceuticals while on the other hand this branch of science caters to the requirements of agriculture, animal husbandry, nutrition and environmental conservation. Because of the commendable scope in this field today it is one of the best career options. There is a great demand for biotechnical experts in countless industries and sectors like: AgricultureAnimal HusbandryEnvironment ConservationGenetic EngineeringHealth CareMedicineIndustrial Research and Development B.Tech in Food Technology deals with various applications of food science like preservation, distribution, processing, selection, packaging, etc. The students who pursue the course teach about the chemical, microbiological, and physical composition of food.
