Hello,

B-tech in food technology is better than b-tech in biotechnology as per the present scenario. The job opportunities and placements in food technology are greater in number. The competition for biotechnology is more in number as it is available in every college. So, you can prefer b-tech in food technology if you are interested in it.

Hope your doubts are cleared. Thank you.
