Two key differences: the FET is voltage-controlled and unipolar, while the BJT is current-controlled and bipolar.
In a FET the output (drain) current is controlled by the input voltage applied at the gate, so it is called a voltage-controlled device; in a BJT the output current is controlled by the input base current, so it is a current-controlled device. Secondly, current in a FET is carried by only one type of charge carrier — either electrons (n-channel) or holes (p-channel) — which makes it a unipolar device; in a BJT current is carried by both majority and minority carriers (both electrons and holes), which makes it a bipolar device. Other differences …
