If you want to become a
successful Biotechnologist and for it, you are looking to get admission in
Biotechnology in IITs after the 12th this is really a tough job. But you can make
it easy by taking it seriously and start preparing for it.
You can be a Biotechnologist by
doing any of the courses in Biotechnology but the choice of your courses should
depend on what do you want to be an engineer or a scientist. After doing BSc
and MSc you can be a Biotechnologist Scientist but if you want to be a
Biotechnology Engineer, then you have to do B.Tech and M.Tech in Biotechnology.
IITs are India's top-ranking
institutes that have 100% placement records at very high salary packages in
various Biotechnology companies and industries. To be a biotechnologist from
IITs after the 12th you have to follow some simple steps.
- Understand Biotechnology
- Your Aptitude in Biotechnology
- Degree of Biotechnology
- Best IIT for Biotechnology
- Appear for JEE Mains Exam
- Appear for JEE Advanced Exam
- Get Good All India Rank (AIR)
- Participate in Joint Seat Allocation
1. Understand Biotechnology
Before making the decision to
make a career in the Biotechnology field you should get some brief information
about Biotechnology. Find answers to some questions like what is Biotechnology,
the scope of Biotechnology, applications of Biotechnology, career prospectus in
Biotechnology, jobs in Biotechnology, future of Biotechnology in India or
abroad.
2. Your Aptitude in Biotechnology
Choosing any course is just
because it has good scope in India or you get a high salary package job after
completing this course is not a good idea. Job satisfaction and achieving that
job you want to become is also important. It is important that your interest
must be in that field.
Before choosing Biotechnology it
is better to check your aptitude in Biotechnology and find the answer that
Biotechnology career is best for you or not.
3. Degree of Biotechnology
Biotechnology is now spread in
all types of courses like medical, science, engineering, computer, and
management. So every type of Biotechnology course is available for the students
to study but here we mentioned only IITs offered courses.
You have to choose the
appropriate degree course in Biotechnology from the various types of
Biotechnology courses available in the science & engineering field in the
IITs. You can do any of the courses like B.S.-M.S. Dual Degree, B.Tech,
Integrated B.Tech- M.Tech, etc from the IITs.
Choose the appropriate degree
course in Biotechnology from the various types of Biotechnology courses
available in the science & engineering field.
4. Best IIT for Biotechnology
There are 23 IITs in India that
offer about 107 various types of courses for the 12th-passed students. You have
to choose the best IIT that offers the Biotechnology course. Not all IITs offer
Biotechnology-related courses at the graduation level. Only seven IITs offer
Biotechnology and related courses to Biotechnology for the 12th passed
students.
The list of IITs that offered
Biotechnology-related courses is given below.

5. Appear for JEE Mains Exam
To get admission in IITs the JEE
Mains Exam is the first national-level exam that you have to pass with very
high marks a secure a good rank in this exam. JEE Main examination is conducted
by the National Testing Agency (NTA) in India two times every year in January
and April months.
The Joint Entrance Examination
(JEE Main) has two papers. The first paper is for admission to Undergraduate
Engineering Programs (B.E/B. Tech) in various NITs, IIITs, and
government-funded state Institutions/Universities.
JEE Mains Exam is a compulsory
eligibility test for giving the JEE (Advanced) exam which is conducted for
admission to IITs.

6. Appear for JEE Advanced Exam
The Joint Entrance Examination
(Advanced) is conducted every year by all IITs jointly. JEE (Advanced) is
the second or final entrance test that you have to pass for admission to the IITs.
You can appear for the JEE (Advanced) exam if you have a minimum cut-off score
in the JEE Mains exam.
You have to pass JEE Advanced
exam with very high marks to get the All India Rank (AIR). You can give this
exam only two times so must pass this with high marks.
IITs provide admission into
various undergraduate courses, integrated Masters or Dual Degree in
Engineering, etc.
7. Get Good All India Rank (AIR)
Obtaining a good All India Rank
(AIR) in JEE Advanced is the final qualification to get admission in IITs.
Since there are a limited number of IITs that offer Biotechnology courses so
you must have a very good all-India rank to get admission in your desired IITs
and Biotechnology course.
If you fail to get a good rank in
JEE Advanced exam then it is tough to get admission to the IITs for the
Biotechnology course.
8. Participate in Joint Seat Allocation
Joint Seat Allocation is a
counseling process where AIR rank-holding students have to participate to take
admission in IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other Government funded technical
Institutes. This process is conducted by the Joint Seat Allocation Authority
(JoSAA). In this procedure, students have to fill in their choices of IIT and
courses in which they want to take admission. According to students'
performance in 12th and JEE Advanced marks, they get admission in the IITs.
Conclusion
So if you finally decided that you want to be a Biotechnology Engineer from IIT then you have to appear for the JEE Main Examination and passed it with good marks to get qualify for the appeared in JEE Advanced Examination. After qualifying for the JEE Advanced exams with very high marks and a good all India rank you will be eligible for getting admission to Biotechnology courses in IITs.
