Hi.

In general, B.Tech Food Technology is better than B.Sc Food Technology because being an Engineering subject, it has more detailed and thorough knowledge and candidates with engineering degree are preferred as well, depending on which university the completed it from.

Also Salary for B.Tech FT is around 4.8 LPA and for B.Sc FT it ranges from 4 to 6 LPA

Top Job roles: B.Tech - Technical Brewer, Scientific Laboratory Technician, Quality Manager, Food Technologist etc

B.Sc- Food Safety Officer, Food Technologist, Incubation Manager, Food Analyst etc

Also there are chances of industrial training, internships in B.Tech courses which might not be the case in B.Sc courses.

If you a further specific query, please feel free to comment.

Best of Luck
