For undergraduate students, “Department of Biotechnology, IIT Madras” offers two different streams:

  1. Biological Engineering
  2. Biological Sciences

Both the streams are research oriented and make the student ready for latest cutting-edge research in the field of Biotechnology. Admission to the programs require students to qualify JEE Advanced with a competitive rank. Both programs have exciting placement offers (which you can explore in detail here). You can take a look at the department website for more information. 

The next few decades will be marked by discoveries in life sciences and IIT Madras will be at the forefront, putting bio-technologists in great demand globally as this renaissance takes shape.
