Hi there,

Currently all these three sections of engineering has not a decent scope in India, although bthere are many laboratories where gentical research are being carried out and many genetic engineers are there, but the salary is not that good at initial level, if you have masters degree as well then you might get a good salary still there are no such good opportunities in the current scenario for anybof the above mentioned branches.

The main reason is the only few college like

• Sharda university
• B. S. Abdur rahman university
• BIHER

Provides these branches there are no IITs or NITs offering it,

Hence I would suggest that if you can patiently work with this then might be after 10 years the scenario change.i hope this help

hey,

there are only two colleges offering B.E/B.tech in genetic engineering in tamil nadu

1. SRM institute of science and technology, chennai

2. bharath institute of higher education and research , chennai

for  more information kindly go through the link mentioned below

good luck!

Hi aspirant,

Biotechnology is the science and technology based on life science. Biotechnology connects cellular and molecular processes to develop technologies and products that help to improve quality of life. Recent advances in biotechnology helps in developing tools and technologies to combat deadly diseases, to keep the environment healthier and to have efficient industrial manufacturing processes.

Genetic engineering is a part of biotechnology in this college. do check the official link incase you have a doubt. https://crescent.education/biotechnology-6/

Hi aspirant,

BTECH Genetic engineering is  available as biotechnology (genetic engineering and nanotechnology) in BS  Abdur Rahman Crescent College.

Candidates shall be selected for admission to B.Tech Programme for all branches based on the merit in the qualifying examination and marks scored in the Crescent Institute Engineering Admission Test (CIEAT 2020) conducted by the B.S.Abdur Rahman Crescent Institute of Science and Technology or should have a valid score in JEE (Main).

the list of minor programmes available  is given in this link : https://crescent.education/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Minor-degree-programmes-2020-21.pdf

You can also check the various programmes on the official website of the college. https://crescent.education/undergraduate-programmes/#ugp

Hello,

Thanks for connecting to Careers360

Once you hold bachelor's degree in science, you can start the course of your career in Genetic Engineering. With specialisation in biophysics or biochemistry or molecular biology or genetics, you can do masters or M.tech or MSc in anyone of the subjects mentioned above.

Genetic Engineering focus mainly on the following topics :

* Biochemistry

* Cell Biology

* Molecular Biology

* Evolutionary Biology

* Medical Biology

Main techniques of Genetic Engineering are :

Research agriculture, industrial biotechnology and medicine.

Genetic Engineering graduates are required for government and private organizations due to the increasing of biological firms in India and in abroad. Graduates can take up teaching as their career, as colleges are introducing course in Genetic Engineering.

Hope this helps!

Thank you!

Genetic Engineering is basically involving the group of techniques that cuts up and joins together genetical material, especially DNA from a different biological species and introducing the resulting hybrid DNA into an organism in order to form new combinations of heritable materials.

To become an genetic engineer, one should hold bachelor's degree in science. With specialisation in biophysics or biochemistry or molecular biology or genetics, one can do masters or M.tech or MSc in anyone of the subjects mentioned above.

Genetic Engineering mainly focuses on biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology,evolutionary biology and medical biology

The techniques of genetic engineering is used in

* Research Agriculture

* Industrial Biotechnology

* Medicine

Scope of Genetic Engineering are:

* Graduates can work both in private and public sectors

* With the growth of Biotech firms in India as well as in foreign countries, Genetic Engineering graduates are required for both government and private organizations.

* Therefore the scope in Genetic Engineering in future is great.

* Graduates can opt teaching as their career too, as many colleges are introducing course of Genetic Engineering .

Hello Aspirant ,

Genetic engineering is a field of study where the genetic code of an organism is altered or manipulated  to produce a desired trait . The insertion of gene into the host DNA is done using biotechnology. It is a 4 years course but if you want to reach a good position you need to do advance studies.  This field is useful in research, agriculture, medicine and biotechnology  After getting a PhD you may go as a core researcher or scientist or teach in a good university. With bachelors or masters you can be research or lab assistants. You may join in the research and development team of any biotech or pharma company after MSc or MTech is the same.

Visit the below link to know more about the course:

Hello there,

Btech In BIO Technology is vast branch of research and if you will not confined yourself in the branch related studies then you will surely get many exposure learn about Medial Search.

I am attaching the link below, refer  the article to know more about Bio-Technology.

https://www.careers360.com/courses/biotechnology-engineering-course

All the best!!

As Bsc is pure science based....Bsc (genetics) involves the study of the pure  genetics and not the techniques used int hat...Bsc (genetics) is of theee years ..

B.tech in egnetics is consits of three types.

. Microinjection of DNA into nucleus of anchor cells.

. ELectroporation in which DNA is introduced through cell memebrane pires by pulsed electrical charge

. Polycationic neutration of cells membrane and DNA to be introduced to improve possive uptakes .

So,Btech in genetics is more better than Bsc genetics as in btech you will get the theoritical and practical knowledge...and in Bsc  in genetics will give only theoretical knowlede..
