Hi,

Yes, Biotechnology is a good course. In fact every course is good and all that matters is the interest of the candidate. It is a combination of Biology and Technology and concentrates on applications of biology in industry for the benefit of society. Biotechnology is offered by many reputed institutes in India.

Graduates from biotechnology can work as :-

1. Biotechnology engineer
2. Scientist
3. Lab technician
4. Project manager
5. Teacher
6. Microbiologists

Some top recruiters in the field of medicine development and production are :-

• Ranbaxy
• Dr.Reddy’s Lab
• Cipla

Of these, some are high paying jobs and placements are quite good depending on the university. Opportunities in this field range from sales ,marketing, research, manufacturing ,distribution etc. But as India is just coming up with biotechnology, you should continue your studies after Bsc as only Bsc will not fetch you a job. So keep updating yourself in this particular branch and course

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
