Engineering in India

Future of biotechnology:
How many of your family members exactly know about Biotechnology? Forget family members how many friends know about this field? Now I think you got the answer, this field is still unknown in our country. So we are discussing about the future of the field which even after more than 20 years in India have not been implemented at that level that it'll reach the common man. Although if you'll discuss about the outcomes like jobs in this field:
R & D of Life sciences companies and Pharma companies do need people of this field but some of biotech jobs still taken up by chemical engineers and B.Pharma people. Patent searching companies do need B.Tech/ M.Tech/Graduates/ Postgraduates in biotechnology for their life sciences teams. Academics which is the major sector for jobs in this field or any other field (Like JRFs, PhDs and scientists).
State councils of Science and Technology do have researcher positions. Environment organisations do have positions for government funded projects. Some of major private research companies also have jobs for biotech people.
