Hey Namya,

There are some courses in VIT which might be good for biology stream candidates. Here it follows

B.Tech in CSE (spec. in Bioinformatics) : It basically comprises of applications of Statistics and Programming, Database management of help manage and interpret biological data. It comprises of courses in Computer Science, Biology and Mathematics/Statistics .

  • Scope : This is a relatively new branch, but Bioinformatics is a widely recognized course with a great scope of higher studies abroad. After completion of this course you can pursue Masters in BioInformatics which will boost your career growth.
  • Placements : To be honest, the placement scenario for Biology branches in VIT is not that great, but ya it’s the best for Bioinformatics in comparison to other Biology branches because of the huge chunk of Programming involved. You might not get Super Dream Offer but still many CSE companies allow Bioinformatics student to sit now, in comparison to other Biology branches in VIT.

B.Tech in Biomedical Engineering : In this course you will deal with applications of Biology for treatment and monitoring of healthcare issues. You will learn a lot of concepts in Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and their applications in Biology field in monitoring and creation of medical devices.
