BTech in Biological Engineering vs Bio Engineering: Differences, placement opportunities, who should choose | Education News

India’s biotechnology sector has witnessed significant growth over the past decade. According to the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), the Indian bioeconomy has expanded from approximately USD 10 billion in 2014 to over USD 80 billion in recent years, driven by pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostics, agri-biotech and bio-industrial innovation. Government initiatives such as Startup India and production-linked incentives in pharma manufacturing have further strengthened this ecosystem. This growth has increased demand for engineers who understand biological systems and are not just pure biologists. That is where Biological Engineering and Bioengineering enter the picture. If you’re a high school student who enjoys biology but also loves solving problems, the world of engineering right now can feel both exciting and a little overwhelming. As you flip through course brochures or scroll through university websites, you’ll probably keep seeing two very similar-sounding degrees: BTech in Biological Engineering and BTech in Bioengineering.

Threads follows Instagram with more links in bio

Threads follows Instagram with more links in bio

Threads is making it easier for creators to share personal links with their communities and followers. The link-sharing update announced today now allows Threads users to add up to five links to their account bios and provides performance insight that shows how many people have visited links shared in posts and profiles. Meta previously only allowed a single link to be added to profile bios on Threads, and this update brings the platform in line with Instagram’s link-sharing capabilities. While creators could use services like Linktree, which provides a landing page where multiple links can be displayed, for that single link slot, having the URLs for up to five links directly displayed on profiles will make it easier to see which link options are available, such as newsletters, podcasts, articles, and merchandise shopfronts. Threads is also working on providing users with new audience management features that compare week-over-week performance data for the number of posts made, total views, replies, and new followers. Meta says that these insight recaps are “coming soon,” alongside personalized tips that …

Indian Scientists Develop Environment-Friendly Way To Treat Hazardous Bio Waste

Indian Scientists Develop Environment-Friendly Way To Treat Hazardous Bio Waste

India generates 742 tonnes of biomedical waste daily and managing it gives hospitals, literally, a real headache. Most of the waste, which could be anything from blood, sputum, and body parts to bandages and swabs is incinerated in special facilities. But, according to the Central Pollution Control Board, nearly 200 tonnes of hazardous biomedical waste is still untreated. One of the biggest fallouts of untreated biomedical waste is the development or evolution of microbes that are resistant to antibiotics; this poses a huge risk to all humanity. Also, safe transportation of biomedical waste poses a special risk. Now, scientists working at the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research-National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology (CSIR-NIIST) in Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala have developed an indigenous technology that treats biomedical waste using chemicals and converts it into manure. The first prototype has been installed at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi, where the technology will be validated by in-house scientists. “It is truly a ‘waste-to-wealth’ endeavour,” Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh, who is …
