Hello aspirant.

The application of biological concepts and processes to technological advances and developments is the main focus of the BSc Biotechnology degree. Molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, bioinformatics, microbiology, immunology, bioprocess engineering, biochemistry, and biostatistics are among the courses covered in this three-year undergraduate curriculum. A minimum of 55–60% aggregate in Class 12 Science with PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) as majors, with a recognized board, is required to be eligible for a B.Sc. in Biotechnology.

Hello,

HOW TO PURSUE COURSES IN BIOTECHNOLOGY-

Admission to biotechnology courses can be obtained through various routes, depending on the level of study (undergraduate or postgraduate) and the institute.

1. UG PROGRAMS (B.Sc/ B.Tech)-

  • Eligibility: For B.Sc. or B.Tech in Biotechnology, candidates must typically have completed their 12th grade with subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and sometimes Mathematics, depending on the institution.
  • Entrance Exams: Admission is often based on entrance exams such as JEE Main, NEET, or state-level engineering/biotechnology exams. Some private universities may also conduct their own entrance tests or accept merit-based admissions.
  • Application Process: After clearing the entrance exams, you will need to apply to the respective institutes through their admission portals or counseling processes.

2. PG PROGRAMS (M.Sc/ M.tech)

  • Eligibility: A bachelor's degree in a relevant field (biotechnology, biology, or related sciences) is required for admission to postgraduate programs.
  • Entrance Exams: Admission may be based on exams like GATE (for M.Tech) or university-specific entrance tests (for M.Sc). National-level exams like IIT JAM are also common for M.Sc. programs.
  • Application Process: After clearing the necessary entrance exams, you can apply to universities or institutes offering biotechnology courses through their respective admission processes.

DIRECT ADMISSION IN PRIVATE INSTITUION-

  • Some private universities offer direct admission based on your 12th-grade marks for undergraduate programs or based on your graduation percentage for postgraduate programs. You may need to meet specific eligibility criteria set by the institution.

THANK YOU!! ALL THE BEST!!
