Whether you have completed your post-graduation in Biotech from the reputed institutes in India such as, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research or Indian Institute of Science, or from any university situated abroad, it’s a high-level training that matters.
According to industry experts like Dr. Yusuf Deeni, post completion of Masters in Biotechnology, one can find employment in biotech companies or can even pursue Ph.D.
One can also be a part of biofuels, healthcare, cleantech and industrial biotechnology.
