Hey,
I am zeeshan, an engineer with biotech specialiazation. I qualified the GATE 2014 exam with AIR 277, gate score 563 and 98 percentile. I wanted career advice from people in our field.

I am very interested in bioprocess engineering, taking things from lab scale to industrial scale Smile .. I have read the sticky posts and have already applied to IITD(MS biochem),IITM(MS Biotech), IIT kgp(Biotech).. I am facing a problem with IITB as they have Biotechnology & BioSystems Engineering in chemical department and I am unable to apply for it as my BE was in Biotech..

My questions are
1.Which other colleges are good at Bioprocess Engineering that i can apply to?
2.Should i apply for phd's?.. Its a common advise from elders..
3.Also how is the market for Bioprocess engineers and can i look for enterpreneurship options after my MS/M.tech/PhD?

Thank you for your time
Regards
Zeeshan.
