I want to know about institutes that offer B.Tech. in Genetic Engineering.
Genetic engineering is deliberate manipulation of genes to alter the characteristics or behaviour of organisms. The genetic code is altered to enhance, suppress or induce specific traits or behaviour. Genetic Engineering is a specialisation under a broader field Biotechnology. It finds application to several fields like medicine, drug development, food processing, agriculture and animal husbandry.

Genetic engineering as a B.Tech. specialisation is available in a few institutes. However, you can opt for B.Tech. in Biotechnology, which covers Genetic Engineering.
