Both have equal importance. But, if we talk about career opportunities, then it totally depends upon your interest because biotech is a kind of field where you can utilize your research skills. And in food tech, you have some decent job opportunities. So, I think you should first analyze yourself, try to figure out your own skills and potential and you will find your answer, coz no field is poor, unless we don't have interest in it.

Hello, Biotechnology and Food Technology are two different streams. At its core, Food technology is a subset of Biotechnology. Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary stream that has subsets within, one of them being Food Technology apart from Industrial Biotechnology, Medical Biotechnology, Agricultural/Plant Biotechnology, Animal/Mammalian Biotechnology. While Biotechnology has both an industrial and academic research element to it, Food Technology mainly revolves around Industrial research and finds scope in its Food Industries. Biotechnology opens many doors, offering you opportunities in different sectors of the Applied Biosciences. If you are undecided and are looking to find a place in a sector, Biotechnology would be a better option over Food technology. Food Technology, on the other hand, specializes you in the food sciences and development of food technologies. If that interests you, you would be a happy member of the community. Biotechnology and Food Technology may sound as similar courses, but both are them a lot of differences in terms of curriculum, career scope, admission process and duration. Judging the best course among the two depends on various factors like your area of interest, the college that you choose and your determination to pursue one among these courses. A lot even depends upon your interest. Now when we talk about choosing a right course, choosing a right university or college is equally important. There are many universities that offer these courses. LPU is among the top university offering both of these programs. Being an LPU Alumni, I can say that LPU has experienced faculty members, well-equipped labs, great infrastructure, excellent placements, complete training and placement assistance and lot more and that too at a very low fees and high scholarships.
