Hi,

I am a post graduate in veterinary science. A m i eligible to do a Ph D in biotechnology

No, you cannot do Ph. D. directly after MBBS. Firstly you will have to do M. Sc. or M. E. or M. Tech. in Biotechnology and then you do Ph. D. in Biotechnology because for doing Ph. D., master's degree is required and MBBS is a bachelor's degree.

hi,
I have b.tech in biotechnology & biochemical engineering and have also taken mtech in technology mangement which was an inter disciplinary course..now i would like to do Phd in biotechnology...am i eligible for that? if not what should i do for the same?.....am i atleast eligible to write the csir-ugc-net examination??..

hi dear,

since u don't get to see previous yr's q. paper- i'd advise u to sit for as many competitive exams--e.g. JEST 2005, IISc, JNU entrance exam etc. as u can-- so that u get acquianted with their question types. exams r formula based-- i'm sorry to say u need to mug them up first!!! enroll for JEST immediately-- it's date may already be over-- after that there are some books which u'll have to go thru-- like griffiths, kleppner etc best of luck go ahead
