The Center of Biotechnology (CBT) at JNU undoubtedly runs one of the finest masters degree programs in biotechnology. The CBT was established in 1985 under joint sponsorship of the UGC and the DBT. And in the same year the Master of Science program in Biotechnology was started. The Center has established a very successful MSc biotech program, which selects the best of the students from the merit list prepared on the basis of an All India Entrance Test conducted by JNU. Analysis of the merit list indicates that during the past five years about 50-60 percent of the students from the top 100 give their first preference to JNU. But only 20-25 students are taken every year from the top on the basis of their preference. Till now most of the MSc students have gone to do research in different institutions in the country and abroad. Very few students have taken up jobs in the industry. Though the biotech industry is very keen to give jobs to the students and campus placements camps have been organized by various top notch companies like Panacea Biotec, Reliance Life Sciences and Invitrogen, students prefer to complete their higher education first.

17. PGIMER, Chandigarh
The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) Chandigarh was conceived in 1960 as a center of excellence which would endeavour to develop patterns of teaching in postgraduate medical education in as many branches as possible and attempt to produce specialists in several disciplines of medicine. It was also envisaged that these specialists would spread out in the country in various medical colleges and medical institutions and impart medical education of highest standard to the students and set up nucleus of excellence in their own institutions. The PGIMER was also given the responsibility to broaden the horizons of medical knowledge by intensive research in the field of health.
JIPMER traces its origin to 1823 when a medical school called "Ecole de Medicine de Pondichery" was established by French government. In November 1956 the Government of India took over the medical college in the wake of the ‘de facto’ transfer of Pondicherry 13th July 1964 .

What is Biotechnology and its scope ?
Biotechnology is one of the world’s newest and most important applied science of the 21st century. It requires spirit and embraces basic sciences like Physics, Chemistry, Maths as well as engineering technology depending upon its application. In most general sense, Biotechnology refers to the use of microorganism, such as bacteria or yeast, or biological substances, such as enzymes to perform specific industrial or manufacturing process. It includes manipulation of organisms on the molecular and genetic level to improve health, safety, nutrition and environment.
Biotechnologist’s will be absorbed by almost every sphere of life whether it is agriculture, horticulture, dairy farming, pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry. Careers in biotechnology tend to be related to Research and development, Quality control, clinical Research, Manufacturing and Production, Patent administration, Management and Administration, hospital laboratories, Academic Research laboratories, Forensics, environmental cleanup and Bioinformatics. Being a part of the world of biotechnology, there is and would be an identification in itself.

Is it necessary to have a doctorate degree or can one get good job safter a Master's degree? What is the scope for an MBA biotechnology student?
The baseline is that there is no necessity of a PhD degree. With an MSc, MTech,B.Tech degree, one is equipped to do the routine activities like quality control,quality assurance, processing, production, downstream processing and fermentation whereas if one is looking at developing IPR for a company or gointo innovative research, then it is preferable to have a PhD degree. Finally, it is your mindset, which is important and not the degree. Similarly with an MBAbiotech degree you are more equipped towards marketing, marketing analysis and business development activities.

What are the opportunities available for biotech personnel in the private sector?
Today, there is a specific requirement of quality manpower for the third generation of biotechnology. Till now, many a times, it has been seen that good scientists hesitate to come to the industry. Budding biotechnologists should remember that the biotech industry is now involved in innovative research and development. Earlier companies were spending about 5-10 percent of the total turnover into innovative R&D but of late they are investing 15-20 percent of the total turnover into it. Though the Indian industry is still at a nascent stage ofindigenous research and process development , its scientific environment (facilities) have been built consciously , which is very good. Students having an innovative bent of mind can enter this arena. Besides research there are openings at various levels like in quality control, marketing and sales, regulatory sector, technology transfer, clinical trials and in thebioservices segment (CROs). Since the industry has become more competitive, has specific human resource requirements, which it finds hard to fulfil. Presently, most of the students are like technicians and there is a great dearth of talent. It is important to remember that the industry is for profit and will identify the person based on his skills and attitude.
