I'm a B.Sc Biotechnology student. What should I choose after graduating? I like to take Medical Biotechnology in M.Sc but many discourage me
Biotechnology has huge scopes for unlike the conventional science subjects like Botany and Zoology it is the amalgamation of different aspects of science that would help you explore life with different scientific approach.
There is so much that you can do after B.Sc in Biotechnology.You may go for M.Sc and PhD courses like Masters of Science in Applied Biotechnology,Animal Biotechnology ,M.Sc in Industrial Biotechnology,M.Sc in Marine Biotechnology,PG Diploma in Biotechnology and many more.You may even get jobs in private,biotech companies.
As you mentioned you are interested in MSc in Medical Biotechnology,then it's eligibility criteria is to have either B.Sc in Life Sciences or B.Tech in Biotechnology.
Just remember a thing with hardwork and patience you can get through all the odds.Dont let others decide things for you. Be sure of your calling and work accordingly.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
