Hello student ,

When comparing both Genetics and Microbiology have a good future but relatively Genetics has an upper hand because as we know Genetics is still a developing course when compared to Microbiology

If your into research then Genetics has a very vast scope

Currently Genetics and genomes are playing a key role in many research. According to me if you are interested in Genetics then you must choose genetics over Microbiology.

Genetics is a vast field and it has many application in many fields like Cell biology, food industry, vaccines and medicines, Diseases etc.

Graduates generally choose to work as molecular biologists, medical or clinical geneticists, cytogeneticists, biotechnologists, agricultural scientists, molecular ecologists, forensic scientists, genetic counsellors, bioinformaticists and computational analysts, veterinary scientists, teachers or lecturers at various institutions and in bioscience-related industries

Hi,

After completion of the Msc in Plant Breeding and Genetics course, the graduates can work as Plant Breeder, Plant Geneticist, Farm Manager, Agronomist, Assistant Professor, Associate Researcher, etc. The average salary after completion of this course is around INR 3 lakh to INR 5 lakh per anum.

The candidates can pursue doctorate courses after this course. Some of the options are PhD in Genetics and Plant Breeding, PhD in Agronomy, PhD in Horticulture, etc.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Dear aspirant !

Hope you are doing great ! Both the courses are good and also have many options in future as well but choose course according to your interest not for money and scope because if your interest is present in something then automatically you can generate money from that.

Hope it helps you !!

Thank you!!

Hi aspirant, based on your question below is your answer;

The following is a list of core subjects covered in the BSc Biotechnology syllabus:

• Introductory Biological Chemistry.
• Animal and Plant Physiology.
• Recombinant DNA Technology.
• DNA Typing, Proteomics and Beyond.
• Biodiversity and Taxonomy.
• Microbiology and Macromolecule.
• Biostatistics

Thank You.

There are also molecular genetics and molecular hematology courses open to pathologists( one needs to have a MD degree first) in few of the premier institutes of our country. Hematology and oncology is a branch when pursued leads to a lot of genetics related work. Clinical courses would entail only its application to patients without any real laboratory work, while if one pursues Pathology or biochemistry it is possible to do laboratory work in genetics.

As far as my knowledge of geneticists with a MSc or a Phd without MBBS goes they are pretty far removed from practicalities of clinical genetics and can’t seem to comprehend the day to day problems of clinicians or laboratory specialists in doing gentics related work in hospital. There are a select few who can marry genetics with clinical nitty gritty and few who understand this kind of work but are very rare to find

hi...

it depends on your interest..

BSc Genetics and BSc Biotechnology are almost similar courses due to field study. Biotechnology refers to the study of living organisms and systems to make different products whereas Genetics is a study of genes, variations, and heredity in organisms. BSc Genetics course helps to study cells and genes.

hi..

B.Sc Genetics Subjects

• Fundamentals Of Cell Biology.
• Cytogenetics.
• Molecular Genetics.
• Principles Of Genetics.
• Recombinant DNA Technology.
• Basic Human Genetics.
