2. I am doing B.Sc in Bioinformatics and I am very confused that what should I do after my graduation? Is Masters beneficial or not. And what scope does bioinformatics has further. Guide me about a course that could be helpful to me in future.
– K. Ramesh, Chandigarh

It’s always better to do B.Sc in a core subject, which increase the strength of a student in a particular area. As you have completed your graduation with Bioinformatics, it is better to continue with the same. As per as the future concerns, there are jobs available in the industry and R & D sectors for Bioinformaticians. But the scope is not much wide. The competition is to high in this field and the candidate should be a good programmer as well as understanding should be good in Biology. The other option for you is to shift to IT sector completely.
