Hello,
Biotechnology and biomedical engineering both are different subjects.
Biotechnology is mainly about the biology and technical combination. In this stream you have to explore biology in technology. You can develop new system by living cells, organism etc. The synthetic growth hormone or any kind of vitamin related food can develop by this Biotechnology process. Normally 4 types of biotechnology present are medical biotechnology, agriculture biotechnology, industrial biotechnology, environmental biotechnology. You can pursue this course in BSC study and in technological like BTech Biotechnology study.
Biomedical engineering mainly focus on advances in technology and medicine to develop new devices and equipment for improving human health. It's basically related to new medicines and clinical research. So this course offered only engineering course. It's also known as traditional biotechnology.
If you want to study about the living cells and organism for development then choose biotechnology. But if you choose the development of medical equipment for human health then choose biomedical engineering. Now choice is totally yours.
All the best.
