Is B.Tech Biotechnology Worth It in 2026? Need Advice from Current Students and Graduates

I need some advice.

I'll be pursuing it from a private college. A lot of people have told me that there aren't many job opportunities in this field. My goal is to go abroad after completing my B.Tech.

Is there anyone here who has already completed B.Tech Biotechnology or is currently studying it? I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience and career prospects.

Biomedical Engineering in WB private colleges — worth it or not? Need honest advice

​

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to pursue Biomedical Engineering in a private college in West Bengal through WBJEE and I need honest advice from seniors.

I have a few doubts:

How is Biomedical Engineering in real life in India?

In WB private colleges, how is the teaching quality and lab exposure?

What are the actual job opportunities after BME (hospital, medical companies, service jobs, etc.)?

Is the salary and growth good for freshers or average?

Compared to Biotechnology/Bioinformatics, is BME a better choice?

I just want to understand the real situation before taking admission. Honest opinions (positive or negative) are welcome.
