Hello aspirant,

Both Biotechnology and Biomedical Engineering diplomas are excellent choices. If you're more interested in healthcare technology, medical devices, and hospital equipment, go for Biomedical Engineering.

But if you prefer working with genetics, labs, or research, Biotechnology is ideal. In Kerala, government polytechnic colleges like Government Polytechnic College, Kalamassery and GPTC Kozhikode offer these courses. Admission is based on SSLC marks and goes through DTE Kerala centralized allotment. Fees are reasonable around 4,000 to 10,000 per year. Both fields have decent scope, but Biomedical has more direct hospital/medical industry roles, while Biotech may require higher studies for good opportunities.

All the best!
