Pursuing a B.Sc in Biotechnology allows for a myriad of career options owing to the rising significance of technology in health care, agriculture, and the environment. Graduates can work as research scientists, performing tests to devise new biotechnology products, or they can function as laboratory technicians assisting in scientific research and development. Clinical research associates (CRA) manage clinical trials and determine as well as ensure that the treatments and medications comply with the laws and guidelines. Biotechnologists work with living organisms to produce vaccines, medicines, and genetically modified crops.
With the increasing developments in genetics, bioinformatics has also emerged as a new specialty which focuses on utilizing computers to interpret biological information. Graduates may also work in the pharmaceutical sector in development and drug testing, or they may work in agriculture with an emphasis on genetically modified organisms for food security and sustainability. There are also possibilities in environmental biotechnology in waste management and bioenergy production. Furthermore, graduates are also eligible to pursue a master's degree or Ph.D in molecular biology or genetic engineering for higher research and academic positions.
