Biotechnology is an interdisciplinary branch of science which is favorite among youngsters as it is providing ample opportunities for those who want to explore the new and advanced frontiers of science. It does not refer to a specific industry or job. The applications of Biotechnology is broad as it feeds to various industrial sectors like food, textiles, pharmaceutical, agriculture, animal husbandry and more. Biotechnology includes several subjects apart from biology making it interdisciplinary. Along with the scientific part and engineering applications, biotechnology is giving rise to various new fields with humongous job opportunities. Being honest, let me tell you, the placements from biotechnology are not that good when compared to other branches. Biotechnology is the future, it is still developing whereas other branches are centuries old and well established. But if you are up for it, go for it. And IIT Roorkee is one of the best IITs. There is no scope of mediocrity here, the institute invites the best players from the industrial world to get their students placed. Around 76% students get placed from the batch. The average package is about 6 lac per annum. But don't worry, it increases o0nce you in the room. If you are looking for more money, then go for non-core jobs.

Biotechnology branch in India is progressing at a really slow rate due to the lack of investment in the field, costly lab inputs and the scarcity of core companies in India in the particular field. Although being in IIT does not save you from the above-mentioned problem but it does help you a lot by placing you in some or the other IT company, marketing firm, banking job with an average placement of Rs 8 lakh or Rs 4 lakhs even if you don't end up in a core company. Placement report in 2017 of IIT, Roorkee in the branch of biotechnology is as follows: the average placement offered to the students was Rs 7.8 lakhs while the highest package given to a student was Rs 17 lakhs. IIT, Roorkee do manage to attract one or two core companies but the intake is such companies is one or two at maximum. If you want to remain in biotechnology field you must consider doing a masters program in the same college or the college you wish to go for. Hope this helps. Cheers

Biotechnology is though relatively a new branch and finding its scope to get implemented as much as it can. Though the widespread application is very large and the great fusion of biology and technology is serving to many people hence seeking global earnings. When it comes to placements IIT, Roorkee gets a decent but improvable stats. The average placement in the respective branch is Rs 8 lakhs and the highest is around Rs 20 lakhs. Most of the students go for further studies to absorb the knowledge as much as one can and become capable of proving its existence through immense knowledge. The biotechnology leading to a development of a modern and advance culture as predicted by critics and hence has a large scope to earn money and respect. The only thing to keep in mind is the thorough knowledge and a whole hearted study of the topic and a small but enough corporate experience. Thank you. Hope it helped.
