Which one is better between B.Sc microbiology and B.Sc agriculture?

B.Sc. In agriculture in India is a 4 year graduate course consisting of topics such as plant genetics, entomology, plant pathology, horticulture, soil Science, agricultural economics, etc. The main aim of this course is to improve agriculture productivity scientifically. The career opportunities in this area include government sector jobs in banks (involved in sanctioning of Agricultural loans) and other state based plantation boards. Private sector jobs include serving at the managerial level in Plantations, Agricultural Machinery industry, officer level posts in Fertilizer manufacturing companies etc. One can even go for research and development sector after the requisite. Microbiology on the other hand is a 3-year graduation course with topics consisting of Clinical Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Immunology, Recombinant DNA technology, little bits of Botany and Zoology, Soil, Air, Water and Food Microbiology, Bio-statistics, etc. Its basically a multidisciplinary subject growing and evolving everyday (this I can say from a personal experience). .

After doing a graduation, you are definitely advised to go for Masters and PhD. if you are so inclined in this field offers a huge scope in Research. That being said other career opportunities this field offers is jobs in the pharmaceutical industry, quality control officers in hospitals, private sector jobs in Biotech companies, etc.
