While you will wonder about the various career options in biotechnology, the first image that pops up is about people in a lab coat. While it addresses one basic biotechnology profession, lab work isn't the lone alternative here. The biotech industry for people searching for jobs is a major economic driver, generating greater GDP.

Here are a few relevant options:

  • You can opt to apply for exams or enroll in universities for higher-educations in renowned places like Germany, or any other well-recognized university in foreign.

Working under a scientist:

  • You can also work as an assistant researcher under a scientist if you are in any way planning to discontinue your studies. 
  • It will provide an important experience certificate, irrespective of the minimum wage, that will help in the long run.

Private sector jobs:

  • Biotechnology has no limit in industry sectors, which is to say if a graduate applies for jobs in this position can earn a profitable amount. 
  • Few of the abundant recruiters consist of the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors, cosmetic industries, companies invested in agricultural or biological products, and more.

Laboratory Technician/Assistant

  • You can opt to work as a laboratory assistant/technician as there are both private and government sectors that are in constant requirement of lab managers. 
  • Regardless of the low pay scale, this can gain an individual a lot of practicality and knowledge. 

Entrepreneurship

  • Establishing your own company to design different drugs, creating RNA Therapies is in itself prosperity. 
  • If you have unique ideas, you can get financed by the Indian government and can begin your Biotech organization.

Government sector jobs

  • In Germany, Biotech developments are monitored under the Department of Biotechnology. Vacancies for various posts are always expected. 

Teacher in an Organization/University

If you get graduated in biotechnology, teaching can also be a career option. For being a lecturer in college, you must have a master’s degree or Ph.D.

The field is open for you to choose anything you want, but to get the best, you need to be the best. So, study well, groom your skills and your personality, and make a good career in biotechnology.
