What you study in B.Sc. in Biotechnology
Most B.Sc programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations (mathematics, science and programming), the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.
Here that means cell and molecular biology, genetics, bioprocess engineering and bioinformatics. Typical first jobs: roles in biotech, pharma, food and research labs. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.
The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Kannur University for the current semester-wise plan.
