Hi
B. Tech Biotech students have a vast scope as they can work in sectors of pharmaceuticals, agriculture, healthcare, food processing, nutrition, animal science, and environmental conservation. Not in terms of opportunities, even salary packages of biotechnology professionals are lucrative.
The scope of Biotechnology has expanded to diverse sciences like immunology, virology and other subjects like health, agriculture, cell biology, plant physiology, seed technology, etc. The job of a biotechnologist is to modify or manipulate living organisms in laboratories to develop new products.

Thank you.
