How is the B.Tech biotechnology branch at Manipal University main campus?

Biotechnology is a budding branch that is good enough to get you working in the industry instead of the research field. The curriculum deals with industrial purposes like bioprocess engineering, design of industrial equipment,bio-reaction engineering, etc.

Despite the decent subject and scope, pursuing B.Tech biotechnology from Manipal University's main campus is not a wise thing to do. Here’s why

• My cousin has just completed his B.Tech in Biotechnology from Manipal University's main campus.
• According to his experience, the academics are great, the faculty is helpful, and the facilities are up to the mark.
• But the major downfall is that the placement scenario is not good.
• You have to accept the fact that you won’t get campus placement if you opt for this branch in Manipal University's main campus.
• However, the branch has numerous opportunities once you step out of the campus, and you can grab various outside campus placement opportunities.

All in all, Manipal University's main campus provides good academics and learning experiences for the biotechnology branch. If you are interested in research, you can do a minor specialization in genetic engineering and pharmacy.
