Biotechnology is not included as a separate subject either for the Preliminary or the Mains examination of the Civil Services Examination. The detailed notification for the civil services Exam 2008 has been published in the Employment News dated 29th December,2007 and can also be accessed at www.upsc.gov.in. Please go through the syllabus of the science subjects to fine out as to which subject contains the maximum topics form the Biotechnology stream.
