Hello,

B.tech in Agricultural Engineering -- In country like India where almost 70 % population is dependent on agriculture, it's very easy to get a job in this field. After completing the course of Agricultural Engineering, you can opt from below mentioned opportunities available:

  • Private Jobs
  • Government Jobs
  • Research
  • Teaching
  • Subject Market Specialist

B.tech in Food technology -- The amounts of job opportunities are available in front of Graduates in Government as well as Private sectors. Competition for job posts is less, since there are relatively lesser number of Colleges offering this course and thus lesser number of students pursuing it. Thus, landing a good job is relatively easy, when it comes to Food Processing and Technology field. Jobs related are;

  • Research and development
  • Quality Check
  • Quality Assurance
  • Food consultant
  • Production executive

All the best!
