However Some Careers Require the Next Step

# data[].attributes.body
Although a BSc in Biotechnology offers a considerable deal of freedom when it comes to applying for a job, there are some jobs, where a degree in this subject just isn't quite enough. These careers require you to take it one step further, acquiring a Masters Degree (MSc) in the chosen subject, or even perhaps a Doctorate (PhD).

An example of such a position would be a PhD - Research and Development Scientist at P&G.

P&G of course, is a well known and very prominent household brand, and according to one such job description, parent of such companies as "Always®, Ambi Pur®, Ariel®, Bounty®, Charmin®, Crest®, Dawn®, Downy®, Fairy®, Febreze®, Gain®, Gillette®, Head & Shoulders®, Lenor®, Olay®, Oral-B®, Pampers®, Pantene®, SK-II®, Tide®, Vicks®, and Whisper®"

This particular job would require a considerable experience in the field of Biotechnology and Molecular Biology, and would hold such responsibilities as maintaining state of the art metagenomics capabilities, working with commerical devisions of the company to drive successful buisiness results, and being that company's "go-to" expert on all relevant new technologies.

Not only does a degree in Biotechnology offer students the opportunity to progess in a cutting edge science, often seen as a, if not the key science that will colour the coming century. But it also afford the successful student greater opportunity in obtaining many secure and stable jobs, not least of which includes a teaching profession, allowing graduates to return to the classroom environment, in order to share their passion for science with the next generation.

An example of such a career specific to a 'Science Degree' or having 'Degree in General' would be teaching as a Biology, Science or Chemistry Teacher at your school! In fact, almost all teachers will themselves have degrees, usually in their respective fields.

As such, the Department of Education is itself a large employer of highly qualified individuals holding degrees.

Employer - Touchlight Genetics

Position - Laboratory Technician

This role is an example of one of the very many positions to have become available at a myriad of young start-up Biotechnology driven firms.

The role itself entails primarily basic laboratory skills, essential to developing not only in this specific field, but also as a young scientist. From maintaining delicate scientific equipment, to assisting research scientists in a technical capacity. Positions such as this offer excellent opportunity to gain vital experience and a foot on the job ladder.

"Darwin's theory of evolution is a framework by which we understand the diversity of life on Earth. But there is no equation sitting there in Darwin's 'Origin of Species' that you apply and say, 'What is this species going to look like in 100 years or 1,000 years?' Biology isn't there yet with that kind of predictive precision."

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Biotechnology, at its most basic, is the harnessing of biology through technology, in order to produce new products useful to people.

Be they microscopic creatures, responsoble for making cheese and yoghurt, or harnessing a complex internal biological process, (such as the process of making milk), and modifying the process to make a new end result.

Modifying living organisms is something we've been doing for 1000's of years, slowly, through selective breeding. Choosing only the most desirable crops or livestock to reproduce. Biotechnology allows us to greatly refine and accelerate this process. As well as even produce results never thought possible until the past few decades.
