FORENSIC
SCIENCES
I am in 12th Science – PCMB. I want to get into the
field of forensics. Please guide me about what courses I can do to get into
this career. – Mr. Ronny Pithawala
There are various career tracks available for
pursuing a career in forensic sciences. To be a forensic scientist then you may
pursue B.Sc. in Forensic Sciences or Biological or Physical Sciences and then
pursue M.Sc. in Forensic Sciences. You can get into forensic pathology, by
pursuing M.B.B.S. and then M.D. in Forensic Medicine. If you want to get into criminology, then
after graduation in science or arts, pursue M.A. or M.Sc. in Criminology.
APTITUDE
TEST
My daughter gave her 10th board
exams. She wants to get into science, but we are not sure whether she will do
well in science as she is an average student. I have heard of aptitude tests,
but will it help us in deciding career? – Mr. Parvez Shroff
Being confused about career stream selection after
10th or 12th is perfectly okay. Instead of blindly selecting a career stream by
following herd mentality, you should consult a career counsellor who can assist
you and your daughter in making the right career decision. The career
counsellor will conduct aptitude and psychometric assessments to analyse your
daughter’s aptitude, interests, intelligence and personality; and thus
facilitate in deciding the career that is best suitable for her.
ABROAD
STUDIES
I am presently pursuing my graduation in Mechanical
Engineering from Mumbai Univ. I want to do M.Tech. in Automobile Engineering
from Germany. Do I need to know German language to study in Germany? – Mr.
Dawnesh Bharucha
It will depend on the university you are applying
to. Most of the universities conduct post graduation degree courses such as
M.Tech. in English language. However a basic knowledge of German language will
be helpful for better communication with the locals; and if you are looking for
employment opportunities after your degree, then it will be advantageous if you
know the language. Most universities offer German language courses for
beginners.
BANKING
I have completed B.Sc. in Microbiology, but not
getting jobs in my field. I want to get into a clerical banking job but not
sure if science graduates can apply. – Ms. Sharmin Khambatta
You can apply for Clerical and Probationary Officer
jobs in banks. The criterion is that you should be a graduate (from any field)
and within age group of 20 years to 28 years. For government banks there is a
centralized application process via Institute of Banking Personnel Selection
(IBPS). You have to register with them and pass their entrance exam for
clerical grade or probationary officer grade. Those who are score above the
exam result cut-off are called for personal interview. Private banks also follow
a similar process of entrance exams and interviews independently.
