Yes, you can pursue a Master's abroad in your chosen field with your B.Tech in Biotechnology and nine years of work experience.

- Many UK universities consider both academic qualifications and significant professional experience for MSc programs in Biotechnology and related fields.
- Highlight your work experience in your application, especially skills and achievements relevant to the field.
- If your undergraduate grades are below typical requirements, strengthen your application with professional certifications, a clear statement of purpose, and strong recommendation letters.
- Aim for an IELTS score that meets current university requirements (usually 6.5 or 7), as this is essential for admission and visa approval.
