Hello,

Yes, you can get direct admission in M.Sc. Microbiology or Biotechnology in many private and some deemed universities. These colleges often offer admission based on merit (B.Sc. marks) or through management quota. However, reputed institutions and government universities usually require entrance exams like DUET, BHU PET, or JNU CEEB. Check the specific college’s admission criteria and apply accordingly for direct or entrance-based admissions.

Hope this helps you,

Thank you
