- Biotechnology is an emerging specialty. The biotechnology industry is still in its infancy in China. Although many biotechnology companies have emerged in China, most of them have the characteristics of small scale and low technology content, and some of them are just biotechnology. Because biotechnology has the characteristics of large initial investment and high risk, according to China's national conditions, China cannot form a large-scale bio-industry group in a short period of time. As far as the biotechnology specialty is concerned, the future of this specialty is good. Major universities in China have set up biotechnology majors, but they have not considered the actual situation. As a high-tech discipline, biotechnology must be cultivated for a long time to show a certain effect in practical applications. Therefore, unless you intend to devote yourself to this industry from the beginning and continue to read master and Ph.D. Expansion capacity. At the same time, because biotechnology investment is too large, the state funding is limited, and the state focuses on the development of certain colleges and universities. Therefore, the level of domestic colleges and universities is very different, so we must choose carefully.
