Biotechnology is a field of applied biology that involves the use of living organisms and bioprocesses in engineering, technology, medicine and other fields requiring bio-products. Biotechnology also utilizes these products for manufacturing purposes. Modern use of similar terms includes genetic engineering as well as cell and tissue culture technologies. The concept encompasses a wide range of procedures for modifying living organisms according to human purposes; going back to domestication of animals, cultivation of plants, and “improvements” to these through breeding programs that employ artificial selection and hybridization. By comparison to biotechnology, bioengineering is generally thought of as a related field with its emphasis more on higher systems approaches for interfacing with and utilizing living things. The duration of the course four years and it opens many job scopes for the applicants.
B.Tech. Biotechnology Course Suitability
- Candidates should have a scientific aptitude and a keen interest in the biological sciences. He should be methodical and patient by nature, able to work neatly and accurately and have flair for laboratory work can go the course.
- The ability to work independently is another important aspect, ability to use computers in work is very important; biotechnologist needs the certain skill of problem-solving, information technology skill, analyzing and interpreting skills also are able for it.
- He should be methodical and patient by nature, able to work neatly and accurately and have a flair for laboratory work.
How is B.Tech. Biotechnology Course Beneficial?
- They can find careers with pharmaceutical companies, chemical, agriculture and allied industries. They can be employed in the areas of planning, production and management of bio-processing industries.
- There is large-scale employment in research laboratories run by the government as well as the corporate sector. Degree holders in India may find work in a government-based entity such as universities, research institutes or at private centers as research scientists/ assistants.
- Other areas of employment are in specialized biotechnology companies or biotech-related companies such as pharmaceutical firms, food manufacturers, aquaculture and agricultural companies.
