Which Masters course is better after B.Sc in biotechnology among M.Sc in biotechnology and M.Sc in microbiology?

Hi, You should go with M.Sc. Biotechnology. Let us first discuss the scope after M.Sc. Biotechnology. Postgraduates of the course are hired successfully in the fields of Medical Biotechnology and Agricultural Biotechnology. Medical Biotechnology is an emerging sector in India, and accounts for nearly 70% of the total revenue of the biotech sectors. In-Demand Biotechnology Careers Biomedical Engineer. Biochemist. Medical Scientist. Biological/Clinical Technician. Microbiologist. Process Development Scientist. Manufacturing Specialists. Business Development Manager. In LPU, M.Sc. Biotechnology, a four semester programme, to enable graduate students to pursue doctoral studies or professional employment, through imparting in depth knowledge in specific domain of Biotechnology along with three semester independent research project leading to dissertation. Eligibility Criteria (Qualifying Exam) is that candidates must be Pass with 60% aggregate marks in Bachelors degree (Applied Medical Science or Medical Science and Allied Medical or Agriculture or Nanotechnology or Biosciences or Life Sciences or Food Sciences or Veterinary Microbiology and Parasitology or Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology or Public Health and Allied Sciences or Plant Science) or equivalent. (5% relaxation to North East states and Sikkim candidates/ Defence Personnel and their Dependents/ Wards of Kashmir Migrants). In LPU, Allow students to develop specific credentials and value package for a chosen career. Candidates can go corporate jobs. # FOOD AND DRUG TESTING LABORATORY This course deals with the quality control protocols and testing of food and pharmaceuticals products. # QA, QC AND CORPORATE SOFTWARES The aim of this course is to introduce students to the philosophy and principles of Quality control and quality assurance in the health area as well as to provide them with the underlying principles and techniques of QA and QC with emphasis on their application in various organizations. # REGULATORY AFFAIRS The course basically deals with regulatory laws governed by various regulatory bodies monitoring microbiological food products, Pharmaceuticals drugs and other products of human consumption. All the best.

Hello, choosing between the two courses would be one of the most crucial decisions of your educational future. But it solely depends upon the level of the study. I mean if you want to go further for Masters then biotechnology would be a better option because it leaves you with many other choices for PG. But if you are seeking job right after your graduation then u must go for microbiology, because it is a specialization programme, and you can get relatively greater job opportunities easily.

Dear Priti, You should know that when you enroll yourself in the M.Sc. Course, you are making a good chunk of investment towards making your professional career. Not just that, pursuing a Masters of Science would also open many opportunity doors for candidates who want to do a Ph.D. in the future. Pursuing an M.Sc. Course would provide a ticket to open paths of industries for career growth. Candidates pursuing a Master of Science need to indulge in research work and submit a thesis of their work at the end of getting qualified. Students can develop a sound career in biotechnology by getting jobs in various classes of companies. Like there are many startups that hire students to develop biotechnology products. Some of them are Bharat Biotech and Shantha Biotech. Candidates can also try in large pharmaceutical companies like Ranbaxy Laboratories, Dr. Reddy Laboratory, etc. The following are the good institutes to pursue B.Sc. In Microbiology and B.Sc. In Biotechnology: Jamia Millia Islamia. IIT Bombay. Lovely Professional University. Vellore Institute of Technology. SRM University. Christ University. Jadavpur University. Being an alumnus of LPU I highly recommend LPU for any of these programmes as many of my friends did the same and got placed in various MNCs. I hope this helps Good Luck!

Biotechnology is an emerging sector in India. One can surely find a suitable job in the field of biotechnology, but it may take sometime, the person may not be able to find job just after their post-graduation. On the other hand, microbiology is also an emerging field and M.Sc. In microbiology is a specialisation programme as well. So, if a person wants an immediate job, they can go for M.Sc. In microbiology.
