A ONE DAY WORKSHOP ON CAREER GUIDANCE AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN BIOTECHNOLOGY

INTRODUCTION
With the advent of Biotechnology, there have been the massive sophistication of the human race, it was started when man used, that the fruit juices fermented into wine, or that milk could be converted into cheese or yogurt, or that beer could be made by fermenting solutions of malt and hops. When the first bakers found that they could make soft, spongy bread rather than a firm, thin cracker, they were acting as fledgling biotechnologists. The first animal breeders, realizing that different physical traits could be either magnified or lost by mating appropriate pairs of animals, engaged in the manipulations.
A number of biotech companies emerged as the result of the invention and discoveries in Microbiology, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Genetic Engineering, and Chemical Engineering. Thus in turn lead to Engineering Biotechnology .


ABOUT US


Today, though India as well as Andhra Pradesh have plenty of Biotech companies, the students are not getting exact PATH to settle in this field .There are many misconceptions and reasons for this cause. So, ZIB has emerged to clear the basic misconceptions among the students and to have the clear idea on this arena.
The institute started to aim the BTech Biotech students especially and we focus on the main issues of the career of the student in Biotech field. We look at the challenges of the students with our proprietary technologies and scientific expertise to overcome common barriers to success .Our goal is to bring forward the Biotechnology effectively that can make it easier for the students.



AREAS COVERED
There are two sessions in the workshop .

1) Career guidance on Biotechnology
2) Entrepreneurship in Biotechnology
