Any student who is contemplating pursuing a career in Biotechnology must be aware that this field is still developing in India. Therefore, the number of job openings and pay packages are both very low when compared with the IT and CS fields. After having a B.Tech degree from LPU in biotech. , students can find jobs in pharmaceutical companies, research labs, and institutions in India. However, most Indian students tend to go abroad to pursue their Masters or doctorate studies in Biotechnology and allied fields. Some students also shift to MBA and enter the world of business, finance, and banking as their engineering background gives them the required quantitative skills to excel in these sectors. Also, many students shift to software through on-campus placements. The LPU Biotech students have a vast scope as they can work in sectors of pharmaceuticals, agriculture, healthcare, food processing, nutrition, animal Science, and environmental conservation. There are many colleges and universities which are providing this course but It will be advisable if you do your degree from a well-known university like LPU and that provides prime placement opportunity, outstanding exposure, and professional enhancement training. Since this field is highly research-oriented, vast, and diverse, it is highly recommended that students pursue their graduate studies in Biotechnology at LPU, Biomedical Sciences, Biological sciences, Bioprocess Engineering, etc. LPU provides ample opportunities to each and every one of eligible students to secure good placement. The university has been ranked high by foreign agencies also with regard to placements of our students. Several big brands of the industry have visited the LPU campus during a recent academic session for campus placements like Cent, E-litmus, Alwar and Alwar Consultants, Roots Analysis Private Limited, etc. LPU students have also availed opportunities of Placements in government services like the Indian Army, Indian Navy, Transport Corporation of India, etc. Through on-campus/off-campus placement drives and SSB Interviews.

You get the opportunity of internship & placement in companies like Biocon Pvt Ltd. , Panacea Biotech, Shanta Biotech, Syngene, Piramal Healthcare, Wockhardt Limited, Reddys Laboratories, Bharat Biotech, Himalaya Spring, Nectar Life sciences Pvt Ltd. , Alchemist Pvt Ltd, Transsasia Pvt Ltd, Life-cell International 3. Contemporary Curriculum- Instill advanced knowledge in the major areas of Biotechnology such as Animal Tissue Culture, Plant Tissue Culture, Microbiology, Genetics an Bioinformatics. 4. Innovative Pedagogy- Usage of demo kits in addition to animations, simulations, audio-visual aids, demonstrations provide interactive teaching methodology 5. Live projects spread across five semesters help develop research aptitude in students. Specializations 6. International Exposure Option : Student may be given an option to go for 4 weeks study tour to USA/ European countries or any other country as decided by the University subject to conditions. Other than these the university has state of art infrastructure for extensive lab work for Biotechnology. It encourages students in R&D and patent ship. Many of their students have even presented their research work abroad in Spain & Portuguese and have earned great laurels for the university too. The School Of Bio Engineering & Bio Sciences has been earning 100% placements from past 4 years in consecutive. Their students are well placed in like Nestle, Roots Analysis, Translumina, Astra Zenica, Dr, Lal Path Lab, Zyla Health, PIMS, Titan Biotech, MoonFrog, Intertek, Meditab, Cryoviva Biotech, Poly Medicure Ltd. , DXC Technology, Nanoveda Solutions, etc. The highest package offered was 9.55LPA (CABINET SECRETARIAT, GOI). It is for sure one place to be.

I would say Lovely Professional University is best for pursuing B.Tech in Biotechnology. If you re looking for quality education, good placements, exposure, academics then LPU is right place, it has all. I am saying this because one of my known is pursuing same course from LPU and her experience is amazing. She told me Faculty members works hard tirelessly in enabling students with the acumen to apply the findings of Bio sciences in the fields of medicine, forensics, nutrition and dietetics for the benefit of the community. LPU School of Bioengineering and Biosciences is equipped with state-of-the-art Bioprocess Engineering and Bioscience labs and believes in imparting knowledge to students through a practical approach to achieve mastery in plant and animal physiology. Few points told by my known who did her studies from LPU that will help you to make your decision: The course offers specializations in Dairy Technology, Fermentation Technology and Bioinformatics. The curriculum offers prime focus on fundamental and applied aspects of biotechnology. In addition to core curricula, course offers subjects like communication and soft skills to enhance personality and employability. She said, specializations may be offered in Dairy Technology or Fermentation Technology or Molecular Biotechnology (subject to minimum number of students and feasibility)The curriculum has been designed in such a way that it makes it easier for the students to prepare themselves for giant exams like CSIR NET ICMR, ICAR, and GATE. With an experienced faculty of 30+ in the department who arw ready to help the students round the clock, seven days a week, this institute is one of the best options for the young population to opt for biotechnology. Companies like Panacea biotech, Dalmia healthcare, Root anaylsis, Cactus (and the list goes on) visit the campus every year. Also the scope is just not limited to work in the corporate sector in areas like marketing, quality controls or as research associative (for companies like Root anaylsis and cactus) but also the research areas. Due to this pandemic situation, Now a days online Induction is going on, University conducted different webinars for freshers, different online talent show is going on. Students are reporting virtually. The live online classes that we will be initiating are much like face-to-face classes only and their effectiveness has already been well tested in the last semester. Thank you!
