Immense potential in R&D.\nIndustry going through ups and downs over last 30 years.\nDepends on which branch of Biotechnology you want to enter into.\nPlant/animal tissue culture, molecular biology, drug development, etc.

Oregon State University is a land grant college. It excells in agricultural studies, although even being a graduate, I am sure there are better. But, OSU is not a bad place to start. It is ahead of the curve in Bio engineering.

here's one: http://www.arclab.org/s1biocom.html\n\nSimple web search of "biotech" "biotechnology" or "biotech industry"  turns up a lot more.

Genetic Engineering is that branch of Biology or life science in which the gene structure of organism is altered to suit a particular purpose. In other words, it is gene manipulation.  This branch will be very helpful to make life easier to the increasing population on earth.\nExamples 1) At present rice grain is more rich in starch and poor in proteins. By application of this method the protein content of rice can be increased.\n2) Disease resistant genes can be introduced in crop plants.\n3) Bacteria can be made to produce life saving drugs at a cheaper cost. \nThus the applications are many and varied.

yes there s s lot of scope towards biotechnology... so dont worry... its worth workin hard 4 it.. so log off and get back to ur books...

First of all you should refer to some text book on "Research Methodology". Here you will get a clear idea of what you are getting into.  \nSome areas of research can be Genetic Algorithms in Statistics, multivariable calculus, graph theoritic applications in statistics.

in my opinion...genetic engineering is like fire...can be useful if it is for the rite reasons...agricultural...etc...but i would draw the line when it comes to humans....imagine if your twin becomes a criminal....or maybe your triplet...etc...it just spells trouble....

The future of biotechnology is bright.If you move to the area of agriculture, the scope is immense.There are food plants that need to be protected from pests and made to cope with less water content. In terms of quality of produce, there is some scope of improvement.\nIn pharmacology several biochemically engineered  drugs are to be manufactured.There are large number of labs in different parts of the world that have taken up the challenging task of manufacturing drugs that afflict mankind.GENE THERAPY is being talked about.All you have to do is be in touch with  latest techniques and use your computer to find out latest developments.If you are in India, get in touch with people at CCMB at Hyderabad, and JNU. You may even visit some of the progressive labs for stimulating your thoughts.

While there are many factors to consider when choosing a school of higher eductation, the US News and World Report listings are a good start.\n\nNow the link given below is for graduate schools.  I think you would have to pay for the complete listing of undergraduate engineering programs.  Nevertheless, the link should give you a good idea of top engineering programs in America.\n\nGood luck.

see im am an engineering student, but wat i can tell you is that bio tech. is a branch of science that has a mix. of both engg as well as biology. its a very good field to work in the comin future spl. in india. And is more fruitfull if you are interested in doin research work.for details you can rite in to me, if you want i have frens doin bio tech. engg.

Genetic engineering, genetic modification (GM), and the now-deprecated gene splicing are terms for the process of manipulating genes, usually outside the organism's normal reproductive process.\n\nIt involves the isolation, manipulation and reintroduction of DNA into cells or model organisms, usually to express a protein. The aim is to introduce new characteristics or attributes physiologically or physically, such as making a crop resistant to a herbicide, introducing a novel trait, or producing a new protein or enzyme. Examples can include the production of human insulin through the use of modified bacteria, the production of erythropoietin in Chinese Hamster Ovary cells, and the production of new types of experimental mice such as the OncoMouse (cancer mouse) for research, through genetic redesign.

Hi Meredith,\n\nExcellent topic. The keyword you are therefore looking for on the Internet is "eugenics", i.e.  the study of methods of improving genetic qualities by selective breeding. (Remember the name of one of the protagonists in the movie : Eugene - rings a bell? )\n\nThere are a lot of articles on that topic according to google. Try this one for example: http://theoccidentalquarterly.com/vol4no1/toq-editnote4-1.html \n\nGood luck !
