Biochemistry

Originally Answered:
What is the best career for M.Sc Biochemistry? The best career for M.Sc Biochemistry depends on what the person wants to do. Many biotech industries employ M.Sc Biochem as entry level production managers, quality control people and some as entry-level research assistants. A Ph.D in Biochemistry might fetch you a higher position as a scientist, but it also depends on what branch you do your Ph.D in. Molecular biology and protein purification, cloning technique skills are often asked for. If interested in academia, the best thing to do is to finish a Ph.D from some reputed university here or abroad, continue with a post doc in a good lab, churn out some good publications, attend workshops, conferences and build your network, then apply for positions at top level institutes. Will end up getting an Asst. Prof job which includes teaching and research. All this provided you choose a right topic and guide and institute for Ph.D.
