Dairy Technology graduates have job opportunities in the fields like dairy industries, food industries, beverage sector, academia, research laboratories and institutes, government organizations and quality assurance programs etc.

Dairy industry, now a highly specialized field today involves production, procurement, storage, processing and distribution of dairy products. The main jobs are in production and processing. Openings for a dairy technologist are available in both the public and the private sector. They can find job in dairy farms, cooperatives, milk product processing and manufacturing industries. Quality control departments also recruit dairy technologists. A large number of dairy technologists also start their own business such as small-scale milk plants, creamery, ice-cream units etc or work as consultants. A consultant, however, needs several years of working experience in dairy processing to be successful. Besides there are opportunities for teaching as well as research and development which is another growing area, crucial for the dairy industry.
