Dear Friend

Generally Life Sciences department of a university runs BSc degree in Genetic
Engineering and there the eligibility criteria is 12th with Biology background
but if you get B.Tech in Genetic Engineering in some engineering college then
you can get admission with Maths background too.

But there are very less colleges in India that offer BTech Genetic engineering
so if you want to build a career in this field and you are not yet in 12th then
I would recommend you to take Biology in 12th.

If you are already in 12th with Maths stream then you can take admission in
BTech Biotechnology and then you can go for a MTech in Genetic Engineering.

Actually, Genetic Engineering is a very specific branch so number of colleges
offering MTech in Genetic Engineering is much more than those offering
BTech in Genetic Engineering.

Thank You

Remember One thing for doing Engineering in any branch you must have basic subject of MATHS.
and for doing graduate degree (BE / B.Tech) the basic eligibility criteria is 10+2 or equivalent examination, with Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics.
That says that biology and maths are cumpolsury to do Genetic Engineering ..


Most institutes do not offer courses in Genetic Engineering as a special discipline but as a subsidiary in biotechnology, microbiology, biochemistry streams.
Genetics is offered at the undergraduate level, at
Kakatiya University, Warangal
Osmania University, Hyderabad

Some of the universities which offer genetic Engineering courses at postgraduate and doctorate levels are
Bio-Informatics Centre of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) New Delhi,
Indian Institute of Technology (Kharagpur and Delhi), Delhi University,
University of Calcutta,
MKU-Coimbatore,
Birla Institute of Technology (Pilani Rajasthan),
University of Lucknow,
Jadavpur University (Kolkata, West Bengal) etc.

Like all other engineering courses you should have studied both Physics and Chemistry along with Maths as a subject. Also you will need to appear for the various engineering entrance exams. Also you should have a minimum of a first class in your 12th standard.

hi dear, A qualified genetic engineer,you must have a graduate / postgraduate degree in genetics or related fields such as biotechnology, molecular biology, microbiology or biochemistry OR a doctorate (PhD) from a recognised university, based on 2-3 years of his own research under the guidance of a professor/lecturer.

The basic eligibility criteria for a graduate degree
(BE / B.Tech) is 10+2 or equivalent examination, with Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics as well as genetics as part of the biology OR a bachelors degree in science or molecular biology.

Dear friend,

As i am a biotechnology student, to the best of my knowledge, genetic engineering is not being offered as a separate discipline at under graduation level soon after the completion of your 12th.

Finish your under graduation in biology related courses like biotechnology, microbiology, genetics and biochemistry so that you can pursue your genetic engineering at post graduation level as a separate discipline.

There is a growing demand for this course.

Genetic engineering is all about changing the characteristics of an organism by doing the manipulations in its genetic material.

These people have opportunities in pharmaceutical industries, chemical industries and biotech companies and in r&d departments of various public sector and government sector companies.

they may also go for teaching.

All the best

what are the requirements for genetic engineering after 12th

BSc, B.Tech and MTech in biotechnology are available in various universities. You only need to get admitted. Requirements are a science stream in class 12 (PCM, PCB or PCMB), and that is all. The scope is growing day-by-day. Foreign companies are looking for genetic engineers due to greater scope of research in the USA, UK, Germany, Japan etc.

after 12 if you want to do B.Tech in genetic engineering then you must have mathematics,physics, chemistry and biology(probable) in class 12.

then you have to appear in engineering entrance examination and after securing good position you will able to take admission in good institution. but there are only few institution in india which offer genetic engineering course. so it is better to take admission through AIEEE examination as it is an all india basis engineering entrance examination.

best wishes.

the only thing is ,, you must have knowledge about biology .. this only the main requirement..

it is a hard subject without your interest it is not possible to success

there are many genetic engineering course are available like b.tech,, b.sc,

all the best

1)Genetic engineering is offered at undergraduate level. You can pursue this course (Genetic engineering) under, (BE / B.Tech). The eligibility is 10+2 or equivalent examination, with Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics as well as genetics as part of the biology.

2) A Bachelors degree in science or molecular biology is also eligible for the course.

Best of luck

Dear friend,
10+2 passed with math and biology as main subjects are required for this stream of engineering.
Jadavpur University is one of the best engineering college for this stream...

good evening dear,

i am too a biotechnology student, according to me genetic engineering is not being offered as a separate discipline at under graduation level soon after the completion of your 12th.

for doing genetic engineering you have to first complete your graduation in filed like B.PHARMA , biotechnology,microbiology,genetic and biochemistry

then it quite easiar to you to pursuing your genetic engineering

best wishes ........

in 10+2 ,U MUST HAVE BIOLOGY BACKGROUND!
O SIMPLY BIOTECHNOLOGY WITH MATHS!

AFTER SCHOOL,U CAN GIVE AIEEE,IIT ENTRANCE
OR INDIVIDUAL ENTRANCE EXAMS FOR1. JNU,DELHI
2. DU
3.JADAVPUR UNIVERSITY,WEST BENGAL
4BITS
5.VIT,ELLORE
OR U CAN DIRECTLY STUDY IN US!..........IT IS THE HUB FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY!
CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY,,MARYLAND UNIVERSITY..WASHINGTON!

the following information you have to know to become genetic engineer

you must know the basis about biology .. zoology , molecular biology and cell biology

your interest it more important without that you cant .and genetic engineering is a more patience one .. you must have the knowledge and patience

lab technique is very important ,, you can get training in varies research center and privite institution ,,,

innovation and reading skill is important

there are different course are available like b.sc. b.tech , diploma course . join there to get knowledge

all the best

i have not opted for maths and computer in 11th,can i get a seat in biotechnology or genetic engineering?

I am in my 12th standard.my combination is PCMB.want to study genetical engineering in US.please help

what should be the minimum percentage ta a student must get to pursue b.tech?
