Hello dear,

Your class 12th subjects are enough to end you up in becoming a Biologist in future.

Usually, higher-level jobs in Biology require higher-level educational qualifications. If you want to make a career in Biology, you should start from Class 12 itself. After Class 12, students can take up courses in associated fields of Biology like Zoology, Botany, Aquatic Biology, Biotechnology, Fishery Science, Marine Biology etc at Bachelor’s level. After the Bachelor’s degree level, students can take up Master’s followed by research courses in Biology. Students with at least a Master’s degree in Biology or associated fields will have chances to get better jobs.

Subjects Combination: For taking up Bachelor’s course in Biology, students must choose Science stream in Class 12 with Biology as one of the major subjects of study.

Eligibility:

  • Class 12 with Science stream (Biology as major subjects) is mandatory to take up Bachelor’s course in Biology and associated courses.
  • For taking up Master’s course in Biology and associated fields, students must have a Bachelor’s degree in the same field.
  • For most UG courses, there will no entrance test except for Biomedical Engineering course.

Hope this information helped you.
