Hey!

Genetic engineering is in demand because of less number of people in this field. This course offers employment areas in

• Hospitals
• Military
• DNA Forensics Department
• Universities
• Consultancies
• Pharmaceutical Industry & Suppliers
• Agricultural Firms
• Research Institutes
• Animal Breeding Industry

Salary depends on qualification and location. Starting salary is around 20,000-25,000 in India. For junior scientists it ranges between 3.5 lakhs to 4 lakhs per annum. In USA, it is upto 2.5 lakhs dollars per annum.

Thank you.

Hi Isha

Both course have their own research . They both are research - oriented programs.

You can choose either based on your interest. For individual research work you have to complete Phd .So the decision will be completely dependent on your interest.

Hope it helps :)

All the best !!

Hi,

There are different colleges are providing offering different courses like bachelors and masters degree.

1.bachelor of engineering

2.b.tech in genetic engineering

For master's degrees

1.masters of engineering in genetic engineering

2.m.tech in genetic engineering

To getting the admission in this for ug level a student must have passed 12th with science stream, from the jee exam you can go to these colleges. For masters degree you must have qualified your bachelor's degree  you can go through gate exam.

There are the few colleges for genetic engineering -

1.srm university

2. IIt

3.school of life science

4.bharath university

5.kl college of engineering

6.school of engineering and technology

7.iisc

Hi Ayushman,

You can do either B.Sc in genetic engineering or B.Tech in Genetic Engineering.

Top colleges which offers various courses in genetic engineering:

• Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur.
• Indian Institute of Science, (IISc), Bangalore.
• Indian Institute of Technology, Madras.
• Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi.
• All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi.

When we talk about placement then there are very less job offers for Genetic engineering.A genetic engineer works with the genetic material or DNA of orgnisms to change or modify some component.  Genetic Engineering graduates get the opportunity to work in medical and pharmaceutical Industries, Agriculture Industries, Research.

The average package you will get is 20k-35k per month.

Hope this will help,please feel free to ask if you have any further queries.

Thank You.

Hello Kunal

Genetic Engineering is a relatively new branch of engineering that has come up in the last decade or so. Genetic Engineering as the name suggests deals with building or modification of human genome or an organism’s genome to change its biological and chemical properties to meet desired results. In common terms, genetic engineering can be defined as a laboratory science that deals with change or modification of DNA ((Deoxy Ribo Nucleic Acid) of living organisms to advance services in healthcare, medicine and agricultural industries. The subject was initially considered part of biotechnology, but with recent developments and diversification, Genetic Engineering has emerged as its own distinct subject of study with sub-domains and streams to follow.

Scopes in genetic engineering

• Medical industries
• Pharmaceutical industries
• Research and development departments
• Agricultural sector
• Genetic engineering firms
• Chemical companies
