Hi
Biotechnology course is all about using concepts of biology for tweaking and modifying biological systems, cell structures, biological processes etc so that they can be used in engineering and technology related applications to improve and enrich various sectors such as healthcare, food processing, agriculture, pharmaceuticals etc and solve problems arising in these sectors.
Eligibility criteria for pursuing B.Tech in most of the top universities is pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with physics, mathematics and English) and you have to qualify some entrance test of the university.
After a B.Tech degree, students can find jobs in pharmaceutical companies, research labs, biotech companies like Life Cell, Reliance Biotech, and many others and institutions in India. There are various industries that are engaged in developing and researching biological products and chemical industries. Besides, there is always demand for improvements in medicines and health products. Students in the research field tend to take up projects overseas, which is another lucrative option.
Since India is still developing, it is highly recommended that you do your B.Tech in a reputed institution for good campus placements and job opportunities. If your university is not reputed, chances of any biotech company coming for placements will be zero. I would like to recommend you that you should pursue your B.Tech Biotech, from a well renowned, reputed nationally or state wise university, in which chances of any biotech or pharmaceutical company coming for placements sessions are higher as compare to the institute which is not that much well reputed and re renowned.
I would like to recommend you some best universities for biotechnology course like:
Delhi College of Engineering,
VIT, Vellore,
PSG Technology Coimbatore,
National Institute of Engineering, Mysore,
Lovely Professional University, etc.
Few of these universities provides extensive learning programmes and exposure to the students. They also provide worthy scholarships to its students depending upon the entrance test taken of the university or board result. These universities also offer various skill development programmes, professional enhancement training and outstanding exposure to its students.

Hi Sourabh,
Some institutes are known to offer Diploma courses to 10th passed students though. The quality and validity of such Diploma courses are questionable. Ultimately, such courses are not very useful, when it comes to finding a job using them!
In short, it is better to complete 11th and 12th standards and then pursue a good (and recognized) journalism course.
In India, there are 2 main formats in which journalism courses are available. They are
Bachelors Degree courses
Diploma courses
Degree courses and Diploma courses are the good ones. But for pursuing them, you must complete 10+2 first.
As mentioned before, some institutes do allow 10th passed students to pursue Diploma and certificate courses. But the quality of such courses is not too good. And the credibility and validity of such courses and institutes offering them are questionable too!
It is very important to have a good foundation. That is why I recommend my readers to undergo 10+1 and 10+2 classes. After that, they may study good Degree or Diploma journalism courses.
All the best.
