• Bachelor of Technology in Biotechnology is four years (8 Semester) full-time undergraduate engineering course offered by Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, Patiala and approved by AICTE.

Admission Process :

• 70% of the available seats shall be filled on the basis of merit of NEET.
• 30% of the available seats shall be filled on the basis of merit of marks secured in 10+2 or equivalent examination.

Eligibility Criteria :

• 70% of the available seats in BTech (Biotechnology) and BTech (Biomedical Engineering) shall be filled on the basis of merit of NEET.
• 30% of the available seats in BTech (Biotechnology) and BTech (Biomedical Engineering) shall be filled on the basis of merit of marks secured in 10+2 or equivalent examination in aggregate of three subjects, namely, Physics, Chemistry and, Biology.

* According to my opinion, both the above universities have their own plus points & advantages in terms of providing with best education, infrastructure & positive atmosphere. But I personally feel & will strongly recommend to go for Integrated MSC Biotechnology in VIT as it is the best between the two according to me.

* Hope this information helps !!

* Good Luck !!

MSc integrated biotechnology course and BTech biotechnology course as a little bit of difference in the syllabus. MSc biotechnology course is based upon theory and practical. B tech biotechnology course is the place of application of theoretical knowledge. In BTech battery course other than biotechnology different streams of Technology courses are also taught. MSc integrated biotechnology course including preach included in the syllabus genetics and practical experiences of the of the subject matter.

MSc integrated biotechnology course has a scope for placement in in at least 90% in in Vellore Institute of Technology. The average salary of of VIT MS integrated battery energy pass outs student is 5 to 7 Lakhs per annum and the highest salary is is very from Rs 1500000 to 2000000 per annum.

So from the corner of view of placement and salary, and the knowledge of theory which is  essential for application when it is for practical field VIT MSc integrated biotechnology course is better.
