Hi and good day all,

I'm studying Biotechnology degree in one of the public University currently, just completed my 1st year, going to enter my 2nd year this september. I plan to further studies after completing my degree. What I have in mind is something to do related with what I am studying now. My problem is that I don't know much about the options I have. I can't seem to find any sites or forums that cater specifically to my needs to search for such informations.

Anyone of you has any sites to share here? Preferably that gives information about renowned institutions that offer such courses.

Lastly, any biotechnology graduates that have been undergoing postgraduate studies now or Biotechnology related PhD holders are welcomed to share your views on your experiences. If you have already entered the job market, do share about the career prospects for Biotechnology graduates or postgraduates as well, locally or oversea.

Many thanks in advance. smile.gif

Since the KPI is the same regardless of whether you get RM3k or RM4.7k... so unless you can get the latter amount of allowance, its not exactly worth it at all sad.gif
Yeah, need to join some courses like scientific writing, journal ranking researching etc. (I'm Bio student, not sure whether they'll have different courses for students from other fields hmm.gif)

Need to pay back all the money if fail, that's why I say its not worth it laugh.gif

Sir, may I know what field in Biology are you pursuing now?
