Food Processing
Hello,
Biotechnology is more research oriented with medical, microbial, diagnosis, tissue culture techniques , whereas food tech is more of business work oriented. Because of less of biotech companies, students taking biotechnology invest much into research programs and better studies. On the opposite hand food tech is gaining more popularity due to rise in number within the food & beverage products based companies.If you wish to decide on a decent job soon it's better to require Food technology because it offers lot of potential within the Food processing and packaging industry , it's an evergreen industry and is growing. On the opposite note if you wish to go for a long route and pursue research in biotech you'll take biotechnology. It's better to pursue Food tech as biotech is struggling in India as of now.
Also your bachelor degree should also be taken in to picture.

Hope it helped.
Hello Adity,
Yes, you may study Master of Science (M.Sc) after B. Voc but you must also study M.Voc for that. As mo st of the Colleges doesn't allow M.Sc after B.Voc. Only very few Colleges allow to do M.Sc after B.Voc. So it depends on the College you select to join whether you can directly study M.Sc in Food Technology or M.Sc in Diary Technology without M.Voc degree after B.Voc in Diary Technology.
I Hope this helps.
Best of Luck!!
