    MBBS is a professional degree that prepares students for a career in medicine. If you pursue an MBBS, you will be trained to become a medical doctor, and your focus will be on clinical practice, patient care, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases.

    Biotechnology degrees (Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD) prepare individuals for careers in research and development. Biotechnologists work with biological systems, conduct experiments, and apply technology to develop new products, processes, or applications.
