Hello Rinu.


First of all, let me inform you that you have made an excellent choice by considering Bioinformatics which is an amazing area of study with huge potential.


Whether you should opt for M. Tech or M. Sc. Bioinformatics solely depends on what degree you graduated with. If you have graduated with B. Sc. or are interested in research, in that case you should go with M. Sc. Bioinformatics. But if you graduated with B. Tech., then you should be choosing an M. Tech. Bioinformatics. 


Feel free to ask any other query in the comment section below.


Hope that resolved your confusion.


Best of luck.

Thank youI completed my undergraduation from BTech biotechnology. I can write IITJAM exam to pursue MSc. Or I can write GATE to pursue Mtech. But my doubt is which option provides me more job opportunities in India.

Job opportunities for both M. Sc. as well well M. Tech. would be similar and will depend more on the kind of exposure you had to the subject, the knowledge you have of the subject and skills you acquired have and the institute you do it from (to an extent). As you have completed B. Tech. Biotechnology, it would be wiser to go with an M. Tech.
