Hello,

Biotechnology does have scope in India, but it is not a field where freshers get quick jobs without skills. Many people say there are no jobs after MSc Biotech because students depend only on degrees and do not focus on internships or lab skills. Jobs are available, but companies look for practical experience.

If you are interested in biology, research, and lab work, then you can choose BSc Biotechnology . It is a good field, and the scope is growing in areas like pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostics, research labs, agriculture, food industry, and clinical research.

To build a good career, you must focus on internships, hands-on lab training, workshops, and good projects during your studies. With the right skills, you can get opportunities.

Hope it helps !
