B.tech biotechnology or B.pharm which one is prospective

Biotechnology : It covers applications of the study of living organisms to make products that can be of benefit to humankind.

Biomedical Engineering: In this field, a biomedical engineer work closely with doctors and researchers to develop equipment and devices that solve clinical problems.

Food Technology: A Food Technologist or scientist does research on improving food quality, its preservation and, enhancing its nutrition value.

Nutrition and Dietetics: It entails researching practices that improve community health and, nutrition.

Forensic Sciences: In this domain, evidence-based research is performed to solve crimes.

Microbiology: A course in Microbiology trains students in studying micro-organisms, diseases caused by micro-organisms and, researching ways to use microorganisms for health benefits of community.

Biotechnology graduates have a vast field of career opportunities depending on their chosen field. India is soon to be a hotspot for Biotech Industry. It is estimated that Biotech sector in India is estimated to grow by 30.46 percent CAGR by 2025 and, India is among the top 12 biotech destinations in the world and ranks third in the Asia-Pacific region . Biotechnology is a promising field that can bring about appreciable changes in agriculture trends, food productions and, healthcare.

Pharmacy: -

Pharmacology

The field of pharmacology is the study of how drugs interact with a living body. Within pharmacology, topics could include learning about the therapeutic and toxic effects of different drugs and poisons; drug absorption and how drugs interact with different foods and nutrients; and methods of drug delivery and targeting. It’s also possible to take an entire degree program devoted to the study of pharmacology.

Clinical practice

A major focus of most pharmacy degrees, clinical practice courses aim to prepare students to provide care directly to patients, including diagnoses, prescriptions, advice, and good all-round communication and support. As well as learning how to approach a range of different types of health issue and gaining a strong foundation in pharmaceutical care and therapeutics, students may also study current national frameworks governing the provision of pharmacy services, and may have the opportunity to gain some practical experience.

Microbiology & immunology

Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms – important within pharmacy, as these microbes can cause illnesses. Within microbiology, further specializations include virology (the study of viruses), bacteriology (the study of bacteria) and mycology (the study of fungi). Microbiology is often taught alongside immunology ; this is the study of the immune system, including diseases resulting from failures of the immune system, the use of immunotherapy, and the relationship between the immune system and stages of life such as pregnancy and early development.

Drug development

Another important field of pharmacy is drug development – the study of the processes involved in creating new drugs and bringing them to market. This may include learning how to conduct pre-clinical research and various stages of clinical trials, as well as studying relevant manufacturing and commercial processes, regulatory issues and assessing financial viability. This field is closely aligned with pharmaceutical chemistry, which is concerned with the chemical side of new drug development.

Pharmaceutical technology

The field of pharmaceutical technology , offered by some universities as a master’s level specialization, focuses on the various modern technologies used in the pharmaceutical sector. This is likely to include opportunities for hands-on experience of the equipment and processes used in drug development, as well as learning about the evolving demands and challenges facing the growing global pharmaceutical industry.

Obesity & weight management

You could also specialize in obesity and weight management , with some universities now offering this as a separate master’s degree. Here you’ll study all aspects of obesity, from the individual level through to the problem in its large-scale social context. You’ll learn about various strategies for weight management interventions, policy formulation and implementation. This specialization could lead to a career in a governmental agency or local authority, public health body, or in the commercial sector developing new products and programs.

At last, I can suggest few universities where you can study both of these courses.

· Delhi Technological University

· Lovely Professional University

· Anna University

· Vellore Institute of Technology.

I hope that helps. Please feel free to ask any further queries. Regards.

Hello..

Both the fields are almost equal in terms of their scope because they are co related to each other,In India at present the market for the medicine sector is very good and you can expect good jobs after completing Bpharmacy from a good and reputated collge,But for Biotechnology minimum M tech is required ,Biotechnology companies generally does not take Btech students ,they prefer ot take Bsc and Msc students.

Both options are good, but you need to find out your interest and liking. If select B. Pharma you need to be good at Chemistry specially organic chemistry. If you opt for B.Tech Biotech you should have interest in technology and you should good at physics, maths & have interest in machinery. Both options are open for you and good from career point of view.

Of course after B pharm you have a wide scope. Starting from a basic 9 to 6 job at a retail pharmacy store to becoming a CEO of your company. Depends how hard and intelligently work in the field. In India, Avg b pharma income can be 1.5 lakhs per month. Starting from 25,000 rs per month salary in marketing to crossing the gross turnover in crores of your own company.

But biotechnology has comparatively more chances and wider scope in India as well as abroad.

If you're passionate about biology/biotechnology, then this shouldn't stop you. In western countries like Canada,USA they have such a great healthcare sector which opens up opportunity for new invention. In such developed countries these courses are provided to the most talented minds. So biotechnology is a good branch although not best in India but you must be proud that you are dealing with some real-life problem. In spite of all this field is growing in rapid manner in India now a days and after a bunch of years span there is a possible chance that India might be a leading bio-tech country.

These are some of the career options :

Job in R&D:
If you are not interested in going for PhD, you can go for R&D jobs in companies like Biocon, Dr. Reddy's, Strand Life Sciences and other such Biotech companies. But the bitter truth is that freshers with Masters degree remain underpaid.

Academics:
If you have passion for teaching, you can opt for this option. This job is particularly good if you look for better work-life balance and offers job satisfaction of being a mentor for so many aspiring students.

If you ask me both are equally good in their own standards

Whatever you choose as your career but go for master it may be pharma or biotech. You will have good scope in future. And the choice is yours.

Hope this is helpful.

Good luck.

hello

souren chatterjee

The prospective for the B tech biotechnology is more compare to B pharma when your planning only if your higher studies or job in the forgein countries be surley in India there is no fast growth for biotechnology if your palnning within india then B pharma is very best option

so i gave the both prospective so please make your decision right i may only suggest you

Good luck!!!
