My daughter is studying final semester bio technology B.Sc course. Can you suggest me the possible higher studies which are job oriented ? Which are the courses available on Bio technology, Bio informatics and Clinical research ? Is there any course available on part time or on job training ?

From a BSc, the field differentiates rapidly.
She needs to decide which echelon she wants to pursue within the biochemistry/biotechnology/microbiology field because the title of her degree means a lot in job placement, regardless of the specific coursework offered. Many schools offer specific MS, Ph.D. programs in Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, etc. There is, however, no on-the-job education save through the US Army, though many companies will train them for specific uses the company has internally.
I would suggest as a core the following courses no matter her final course of study: Pharmacology/Pharmacogenomics, Proteomics, Bioinformatics/BioPerl, Immunology, Physiology, Etymology, Principles of Spectrophotometry, Advanced Organic Chemistry, Human Biochemistry, Enzymology, and Molecular Genetics as starters. Feel free to email me if you need further guidance as I am a Biochemist in Federal Service.
