Hello,

First of All you must understand the basic difference between M.Sc Biomedical Genetics and M.Sc Biotechnology.

M.Sc Biomedical Biotechnology- In this course, you will study about both Biology and Chemistry at an advanced level. This course is to study living organism to produce Bio- Products to make medicines. Genetics is just a part of this course.

M.Sc Genetics- In this course, you will study only about genetics. You will study about the genetic level of various living organisms. You will get to know the various techniques of experiment related to genetics. This course is totally based on Genetics.

M.Sc Genetics Syllabus

Semester 1-

Concept of Genetics

Chromosome, Genes and Genomes

Biostatistics and Population Genetics

Concepts in Cells in Modular Biology

Practical including Continuous Assesment

M.Sc Biotechnology syllabus

Semester 1

Advanced Biochemistry

Advanced Molecular Biology

Animal cell Technology

Biostatistics

Lab

I hope you have understood the difference between the two.

Good Luck.

Hello,

Genetics has played a vital role in identifying such diseases for human survival. Various fatal disorders are existed in human due to imbalance of chromosome number. These lead to malfunctioning or death of an individual. Genetics can help us to understand why people look the way they do and why some people are more prone to certain diseases than others. Genetics can help health-care professionals to identify certain conditions in babies before they are born using techniques such as prenatal testing.

Hey,

Integrated Bsc and Msc course is a five year program offered by different  colleges and universities.

Below I have mentioned the name of colleges offering integrated BSc and MSc course,

-Amity University, Noida

-Mehsana Institute of Science, Mehsana

-Gitam University, Vishakhapatnam

- College of Agriculture, Tiruvanantpuram

-Pravara Institute of Medical Sciences, Ahmednagar

-AMITY University, Gurgaon.

There are many more colleges but above are few good ones.

You can visit the site of colleges for admission details.

Hope that helps.

Thank you

See any course in Genetics will be valuable in the future since there is a lot to know about this courses which is at the end is a very important instrumental for Genetical Analysis of diseases and for genetical predictions and other developments going on in this fields. So doing a course in Genetical sciences can be a good choice for you. But not only a BSc will be sufficient for a considerably good career but you have to at least go for MSc to contribute in the field.

As per the internet research and data available, a BSc Medical Genetics student can earn around Rs.1.5LPA to 3 LPA.

Students having PCB or PCM both are eligible for this course.

I hope this answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!

Hello,

Candidate can apply for admissions in M.Sc Biotechnology course based on their performance in the JAM.  Also, other entrance exams to get admission in this course are JNUCEEB, GATE etc. The eligibility conditions which the aspirants need to fulfill in order to pursue M.Sc Biotechnology are:

• candidates have to complete graduation in B.Sc Agricultural Sciences with Life Science subjects such as one among Biochemistry, Biotechnology,  Botany, Zoology or Microbiology.
• Also, candidates have t score minimum of 55% marks to be qualified in some recognized university's graduation exam.
• Candidates who are currently appearing for the qualifying exam are also eligible to apply for M.Sc in Biotechnology.

Also, the eligibility criteria for MSc Genetics is that the candidates should have completed B.Sc. under any registered university in respective subjects like Zoology, Botany, Biochemistry, Genetics, Microbiology, Biotechnology, Molecular Biology or Life Sciences and Biomedical Sciences in Science stream. Also, the minimum percentage of marks required differs from college to college.

Hope it helps!

Good luck!

Hello Muneesh,

Bachelor of Science in Genetics is a 3 year undergraduate degree divided into 6 semesters. The main idea behind this course study is to get the experience of variation and heredity in living bodies.

To be eligible to take admission in this course is that you must pass your 10+2 in PCM/ PCB subjects from a recognised board or institution.

The top entrance exams for admission in this course is GSAT and DUET. One of the good college to take admission for this course in The Indian Institute of Planning and Management.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck!

Hello,

Genetics

• Genetics as a career by doing courses like Bachelors, Masters & Doctoral degree. Genetics is a wide field and it has applicability in cancer research, assessing newborn defects, Nutrigenomics, DNA sample analysis, etc.
• The field of genetics allows you to work in medical as well as scientific research.
• B.Sc in Genetics opens lucrative career opportunities in various fields such as Genetics, Material Science, Life Sciences, Biotechnology, Biomedical Science, Physical Science, Chemical Science etc.
• For research associate, it ranges from 3.5 lakh to 5 lakh per year. Junior scientists vary from 6-9 lakh per annum. Whereas for a senior scientist, it varies between 15-16 lakh per annum in private companies.

biotechnology

• Some of the jobs for graduates of Bachelor of Science (Biotechnology) in the public sector include: Territory Manager - Genomics Business Development. Assistant Manager - Marketing Biotech. Research Associate in - vitro Biology.
• Biotechnology is one of the swiftly growing sectors in India. Once you complete Biotechnology management, you can continue your career in agro-based industries, food processing industries, healthcare companies, chemical industries etc.
• The average course salary offered to graduates of Bachelor of Science [B.Sc] (Biotechnology) course is INR 4 lakhs per annum. And it will increase according to your experience.

According to the analysis genetics offers more salary but biotechnology has more scope.

Hope this helps!!!
