Hello,

After completing BSC in medical biotechnology generally everyone go for MSc in medical biotechnology. But you want to go for MBA biotechnology. Which is very good actually. MBA biotechnology means masters of business and biotechnology. You have to study buisness with biotechnology. After completing this you have to get job in health and technology sectors. You have to get so many varieties job in this country as well as abroad also. So if you take decision to doing MBA biotechnology then just go for it. It's really a good career opportunity for you.

All the best.

hi,

biotechnology is a wide field and it has many sub classes like medical biotechnology, industrial biotechnology, virology, agriculture biotechnology, environmental biotechnology etc. so it would be best to chose bsc in biotechnology. b.sc in medical biotechnology is mostly related with biotechnology which is related with medical science and technology.

so it would be quite early to do specified biotechnology course just after completing 12th. biotechnology is research oriented field and without having masters degree it is quite difficult to get job in this industry.  after completing b.sc course you may chose the filed of specialization of biotechnology in which you want to do masters degree.

hope it helps.

hi,

you did not mention after b.sc in biotechnology you want to go for m.sc in medical biotechnology or not. however as per careers growth it would be an excellent choice to do m.sc in medical biotechnology after completing b.sc in biotechnology.

the eligibility criteria for m.sc in medical biotechnology is The candidate must hold a B.Sc degree in Biotechnology/ Biology/ food science/ Microbiology/ Nursing or B. Pharma/ BPT/BMIT from a recognized university.

hope it helps.
