I am qualified to respond to your question because my cousin is studying the same course at LPU. She informed me about the course, university, and faculty, which I shall share. In Punjab, LPU is one of India's best biotechnology universities. The School of Bio-engineering and Bio-sciences is equipped with cutting-edge Bio-process Engineering and Bio-science labs and believes in teaching students plant and animal physiology through a hands-on approach. For students' benefit, the school encourages R & D activities. Many LPU students have worked successfully with overseas universities and research institutes. The agency also promotes entrepreneurship in order to develop future employment creators. The best thing I like about LPU about placement is, they provide placement classes to all the students from the very first year who opt for the placement. The highest salary offered was above 8 lakh per annum. Hope it helps!

The field of Microbiology covers many others such as Bacteriology, Virology, Mycology and Parasitology and medical microbiologists identify the agents of infectious diseases & devise ways to combat them. They also track down and identify new pathogens.Public health microbiologists try and control the spread of diseases by monitoring water and food supplies. Agricultural microbiology is focused on the health of crops, increasing yield and soil fertility. Microbial ecologists study the habitats of micro-organisms to determine their contribution to the chemical cycles in soil and water; they also study the effects of pollution on the same, and develop methods to use microorganisms to combat pollution. Food and dairy microbiology prevents microbial spoilage of consumables, fights food borne transmission of diseases, and also makes food like cheese, yogurt and wine. Those who complete a Ph.D. and/or Post-Doctoral studies after getting scholarships through GRE or TOEFL may find microbiology jobs at foreign universities or Research and Development (R&D) wings of major pharmaceutical companies. Research opportunities in urban disease control, formulation research, clinical research, analytical development and new drug development are exploding too, with major companies investing in R&D. So in order to pursue a secured career in Microbiology I would recommend you to pursue a graduation and advance it with a Post-Graduation in Microbiology. This will enhance your career prospects. There are few recognized and established colleges from where you can pursue an educational program that would help you progress. Institutions that offer these courses are:- Loyola College - Chennai Department of Science (Christ University) - Bangalore Miranda House – Delhi Lovely Professional University, Punjab Madras Christian College(MCC) - Chennai Indeed LPU offers courses in MICROBIOLOGY at both graduate and post graduate level.

Even before I answer to your question I would like to introduce myself to you, I am an alumnae of LPU. I have done my B.Tech-M.Tech in Biotechnology. So I can give you an honest and a detailed vision about it. Microbiology & Biotechnology comes under the School of Biotechnology & Bio Sciences. LPU School of Bio-engineering and Bio sciences is equipped with state-of-the-art Bio-process Engineering and Bio science labs and believes in imparting knowledge to students through a practical approach to achieve mastery in plant and animal physiology. Our faculty works hard tirelessly in enabling students with the acumen to apply the findings of Bio sciences in the fields of medicine, forensics, nutrition and dietetics for the benefit of the community. School of biotechnology provides an ultimate learning experience with a commitment to innovation. Various guest lectures from experts and field visits are organized by the school. The school encourages R & D activities for students to get the benefit. Many students from LPU have successfully collaborated with foreign universities and research institutions. The department also inculcates entrepreneurship opportunities to build job providers of the future. Well LPU has shared the international platform in big researches like : (1) The present invention discloses an Improved Oral Targetted Drug Delivery System (O-TDDS) particularly suited for delivery of drugs having activity against the diseases located in the colon e.g. colon cancer, ulcerative colitis, protozoal infections. (2) The present system talks about making test strips for nano-composite strips for monitoring of Benzodiazepines from forensic matrices (3) Sugar free Draksha Asava is completely herbal fermented liquid preparation. It is free from sugars while it contains not more than 10% and not more than 3% of self generated alcohol. It has therapeutic value for piles, tastelessness, heart diseases, and many other diseases. Such great research can only be initiated with well equipped labs and technology. Placement no. of the School of Bioengineerin & Bio Sciences has been at an all time high with 100% placement every year. Even in the state of Pandemic 70% students were placed till March.

At present, the scientific, analytical and problem-solving skills developed by microbiology graduates are high in demand by employers. There are various options available to you after studying for a Microbiology degree.There is an increase in demand for microbiologists in India and globally. A microbiologist can innovate new diagnostic kits, discover new drugs, teach, research, etc. The field of Microbiology covers many others such as Bacteriology, Virology, Mycology and Parasitology and medical microbiologists identify the agents of infectious diseases & devise ways to combat them. They also track down and identify new pathogens.Public health microbiologists try and control the spread of diseases by monitoring water and food supplies. Agricultural microbiology is focused on the health of crops, increasing yield and soil fertility. Microbial ecologists study the habitats of micro-organisms to determine their contribution to the chemical cycles in soil and water; they also study the effects of pollution on the same, and develop methods to use microorganisms to combat pollution. Food and dairy microbiology prevents microbial spoilage of consumables, fights food borne transmission of diseases, and also makes food like cheese, yogurt and wine. Those who complete a Ph.D. and/or Post-Doctoral studies after getting scholarships through GRE or TOEFL may find microbiology jobs at foreign universities or Research and Development (R&D) wings of major pharmaceutical companies. Research opportunities in urban disease control, formulation research, clinical research, analytical development and new drug development are exploding too, with major companies investing in R&D. So in order to pursue a secured career in Microbiology I would recommend you to pursue a graduation and advance it with a Post-Graduation in Microbiology. Being an alumni of LPU I would capture your attention on the following : The Focus is on correlation of concepts with the biological happenings for deep rooted concept building in budding microbiologists to harness the research potential in them in the emerging areas of Microbiology. It provides information of basic bioanalytical tools, techniques and databases. It also emphasizes on sequence alignment and structure prediction methods It provide practical exposure through data exploitation and analysis from various sequence, structure alignment and prediction databases. This syllabus is designed to have a holistic approach about the basic physical parameters of cells or biological processes The companies which are coming in this field are as following : Biocon Pvt Ltd,Himalaya Spring, Panacea Biotech,Jagjit Industries etc
