I have my daughter opting for the above noted courses. Please compare and contrast in terms of availability of best colleges providing the courses; placement opportunities and future for girl child.

Secondly, out of these two courses, which is better and why?

Thanks.

Hello sir,
actually these both feilds are elaborating their scopes and jobs.
in Food tech it all includes about the food packaging,backery, confectionary products, meat-fish, packaging. you may go in felds of dietetics, food production, marketting, preservations, food industries, quality control, hotels, hospitals,distelleries, soft drinks factories, rice mills, research factories,agro based sectors etc.
In bio tech - marketing and sales, research, development, manufacturing, quality control, genetics, cloning,etc
they have employment opportunities in
Actionbiojobs org
biospace
life works
etc
as per concerning about to choosing career than its totally depends on one's interest.
by my side go for BTECH in Biotech.

-biotech

well...
this is the same field wherein i pursue my Btech from.....

there are companies who take them ..... but only in some pharmaceutical firms..... which may not pay a gud looking salary.....
but pursuing a clinical research course after biotech can help in earn a handsome salary.....
otherwise further studies have no end and ultimately leads to teachings jobs......

My Advice:
try clinical research or else pursue Masters......
its always better to be Jack of all trades.........mastering one will leave you limit ur opportunities.

some institutes in India offering biotechnology courses are University of Pune, Sinhagad College of Science in Maharashtra, Al-Ameen College, Amity Institute of Biotechnology, Anna University in Tamil Nadu, Guru Nanak Dev University and Punjab University in Punjab.

for more details regarding the admission procedures in these colleges , you can visit their official websites .

-food technology

There is very good scope for B.Tech in Food Technology & Processing from any recognised university.
Food processing is the set of methods and techniques used to transform raw ingredients into food for consumption by humans or animals. The food processing industry utilises these processes.

For more information and the list of Agriculture Universities please visit this site:

Hope this will be of help to you.
cheers

Let me tell you one thing there is very poor scope of Biotech in India she will have to go to abroad for research, people go abroad for higher studies because they do not get job here anyways. I know many people who have done biotech and they are all jobless. Biotech seems attractive for those who have not done it, no jobs and almost everybody is doing it.
Food tech is still a better option as there is at least less competetion for jobs

dear friend

BIOTECHNOLOGY is an advanced subject related to medical science.

there is huge scope in this sector .

it will give u money ,status and chance to work in any corner of the world.

FOOD TECHNOLOGY is also a new subject in the field of engineering.

it's scope is increasing but limited companies are there.

so i will suggest u to go with bio technology.

all the best.

Biotechnology VS Food Technology

Today we are noticing the rapid growth of Packaged and ready to eat Foods, snack, Amul Milk etc... no doubt all these are growing impact of Food Technology. Which ahs created and plethora of oppurtunities for skilled professionals in this field.

After B.Tech Food Technology its the best field. Food Technologists are reponsible for development processing, packageing and distribution of products to Consumers.

Your Daughter can work as

Production Manager, Food Packaging Manager, Product Development Manager, ETC........

Oppurtunities are also higher after M.Tech and MBA.


Where as India being the no 1 Pharmacy hub in the world, and increasing use of Exotic things, species, etc. Biotechnological application in chemical, oil, paint, food industry and many more things has made Biotechnology as an uprising field in India.

And in coming days, it will explore the Technologycial India.

Biotech has such a wide scope as because its application in more or less every sector ranging from Paints manufacturing industry to Pharmaceutical Industry, From Agricultural field to Petroleum etc......

Very wide and endless scope in coming days.

Now she can decide which field to opt for .

Hello Sir
According to current education standard you must choose B.tech in food technology.
No doubt for food tech.
this course have good scope in future for daoughter.
She will earn very handsome salary but after completing masters.

Good luck

according to me btech(food technology) is the better one because in the present world every one knows that we will be facing the problem of food shortage in the future...........so according to the statement i have written above we can say that we are suppose to improve the food production technology that means this field is going to be have a very bright future...........

so according to me please let her go for this if she is interested.........

best wishes

Dear friend

In now a days, there are very wide career in B.tech food technology. So according to me, you should go for B.tech Food Technology. After completing this course, you will

I seriously think that BDS is a lot better than Biotech especially f you want a job in India For biotech you would have to go to abroad for research only then you will get a good job.

First of all there is no comparition between BDS and Biotechnology.

Both are entirely different thing.

I think you are worried which course to chice so that you can expect some good job and career.

Thing is that you als know that at present Scanerio BDS is a better option then Biotech.

But it is also fact that in coming 10 years Biotech is going to just boom the Indian Technology and will creat a situation in which likewise Core Engineering subject being the first choice of preferance for engineering student Biotech will also take a place in that list.

Remember my words in coming 10 year Biotech will be seen as it would be never before, and I am sure of the fact.

i think biotech is best for your child because now days in India many job opportunities are available for a biotech student if we compared with food technology. so i suggest biotech is the best option for your daughter.
beside this if your daughter is interested in food technology then you should be go for that because without interest there is no way of success.

Sir,
Bio tech is an overview of different aspects.. but food technology is a specialisation in one area covered under bioTech..
course content will be same except a few subjects..
Job prospects can be similar after your basic degree in BioTech or foodTech
your daughter can do BioTech at undergraduate level.. this will widen her job possibilities.. if she is interested in further studies, she can take up FoodTech at her Master's level..

hello sir,the demand and popularity of both the subject is very high.but according to me there have fiew scope in biotechnology in india.but out of india it has a really serious demands.but if we see in food technology it has better carrier opportunity in food processing,packaging,preserving technology.and it has also lots of oppotunity for the entire carrier....

which is better B-Tech Biotechnology or Bsc biotechnology? which provide more job opportunity ?

Hello Friend
B.Tech in food technology is a bachelor’s course in food technology. The duration of this course is 4 years in which students are taught different aspects of food technology.

Whereas B.Tech in biotecchnology is also an bachelor’s course of 4 years duration.Amity Institute of Biotechnology is ranked number 1 in India by Biospectrum magasine.Thapar is also a good college for B.Tech in biotechnology.

All the best.

B. Tech (Biotech) Vs B. Tech (Food technology) both are professional course.

but if we consider as per job opportunity. then food technology is better than biotech.

as biotech job are mainly in as a lecturer and research oriented fields.

but in food technology there have other additional jobs.like

1.food processing.

2.packaging.

3.food preserving.

4.wine industry.

5.Milk & dairy industry.

etc related jobs.

Dr. Surender N. Gupta

in my view btech food technology is far better option to biotechnology.
first of all scope of job is very high in food while its less in biotechnology.
chances of growth in food technology is high in the near future while that of the biotechnology is redundant
experience in btech( biotech) is also restricted to research area only suitable for research and development aspects. while good opportunity is only available at phd level.'
best of luck from my side

i want to do btech (food technology) but tell me after doing MTech in it can i go for research.

i am a class 12 student n i want to know the better scope of course in india among bte h foodtech and biotech

I'M much confused at btech biotechnology 'cos many say no scope but sept hod says good future please guide me
Also any bsc agriculture & bpt
Among the three which has best scope

Is b.tech biotechnology is best to study in amity university of biotechnology and Thapar university
