Which course should I join after M.Sc biotechnology for better career among clinical SAS programming and clinical research course?

Hi Monika, If you are trying to choose between SAS programming and Clinical research, it will depend upon your career goals. The clinical SAS (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="www.sas.com" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>www.sas.com</a>) programming industry, in India, has seen a rapid growth in the last decade and the trend seems set to continue, for the next couple of years, due to cost advantage and the availability of skilled labor. Today, the industry needs are focused on less execution time, high margins, segmented tasks and the delivery of high-quality output with minimal oversight. You can explore opportunities in Specialty Clinics/Medicare centers, Super specialty/Multi specialty Hospitals, Inpatient Nursing Care centers, Rehabilitation Centers, other Ambulatory Health Care Services, Medical and Diagnostic Laboratories/Centers, Non-Government and International Organizations and Outpatient Care Centers. You could also venture into Clinical research field. For entering Clinical Research a degree or PG diploma course in clinical research is almost a norm. The courses could be full time/part time/distance courses/online courses. You could also opt to undergo clinical research training through courses offered by various institutes which will equip you for a career in clinical trials/clinical research. The options in both the areas are increasing with health care and pharmaceuticals becoming big business. To decide between the two do analyse your strengths, career goals, interests, personality, aptitude and ability. If you decide based on these parameters you will put in your best effort and will be successful in your chosen field.
