With the help of DBT, following programmes are now in operation. (i) Postgraduate (M.Sc./M.Tech) programmes and post-doctoral programmes have been initiated in 25 selected universities and other institutions. (ii) Short-term training programmes of 2-4 weeks duration have been introduced for teachers and scientists in high-tech specialized areas, at institutions where expertise and facilities exist.
Under this programme, 1100 persons were trained during Seventh Five Year Plan. (iii) Technician training programme for R & D persons in industry and two 'one year diploma courses' for candidates with B.Sc degree were started to produce freshly trained technicians. (iv) Biotechnology associateships (both national and overseas) are awarded every year for advanced research or specialized training in identified priority areas of biotechnology. More than 200 associates have already received training under this programme. (v) 'Visiting scientists from abroad' is another programme, under which a foreign scientist can visit India and collaborate with a host institution in India.
The above programmes do not include all the programmes financed by DBT, but these programmes have certainly helped in the development of expertise in the area of biotechnology in the country.	Your Ad Here
