Hi, In India, we still don't have a good scenario of Biotechnology education. Most of the colleges offering Bachelor’s or Master’s degree (Excluding IITs, IISc, IISERs and a handful of universities) don't even have proper laboratories and students sometimes don't even know very basic concepts and practices of the field. Sadly, not all Biotech students are actually interested in pursuing a career in this domain and keep cussing about it. As a result most of the Biotech students give up the idea of continuing higher studies in Biotechnology after Bachelors or Masters. But if someone has deep interest in Biotechnology and Life Sciences, one can have a promising career. So, it totally depends on your interest and what you wish to pursue. Higher studies in life sciences: If you want to pursue the further studies in India there are some of the best collage in India where you can go: 1. National Center for Biological Sciences (NCBS), Bangalore 2. Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai 3. International Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, New Delhi (Home - ICGEB) 4. Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology, New Delhi Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Pune (IISER Pune) If you want to go for abroad then you can go with these top universities: 1. Harvard University, USA 2. University of Oxford, UK 3. University of Cambridge, USA 4. Johns Hopkins University, USA 5. University of California, San Francisco, USA 6. Stanford University, USA > Job in R&D: If you want to get jobs in the research department than you can jolly well to give the exam like CSIR NET: This is one of the best exams in research, after qualifying you can able to work with the top scientist in India. Academics: If you have the passion of teaching in your field then you can opt this option also. One needs to clear NET-LS (National Eligibility Test - Lectureship) only then can you apply for the post I hope this will help you.
