School of Applied Sciences

B. Sc Physics is a three-year undergraduate course that deals with the fundamentals of physics. B. Sc in Physics aims at teaching graduates essential topics such as quantum mechanics, Electromagnetism, optics, calculus semiconductors, waves, statistics, etc..The course requires you to have high reasoning and problem solving abilities .

M. Sc Physics – postgraduate degree in Physics involves in-depth study of matter, the motion of matter through space and time, and its related concepts like force and energy. Broadly speaking, it is a general study of nature for understanding the behavior of the universe. The course gives students a scope of developing their problem solving, mathematical, communication skills and critical thinking, which further broadens into interpreting scientific data that is a blessing to scientific researchers.

This course is for those who want to discover and design via analytical thinking and have an interest in searching for various sustainable materials. It is a good option for those who want to be at the edge of high-end technology and want to pursue it nationally internationally. Ideal candidates for this course would be those who have superb numerical skills along with a clarity of thought processes to write scientific reports.

This undergraduate course in Physics would provide the opportunity to the students:

• The Master of Science in Physics programme provides the candidate the required knowledge, general competence, and analytical skills on an advanced level, needed in industry, consultancy, education, research, or in public administration.
• To understand the basic laws and explore the fundamental concepts of physics.
• To understand the concepts and significance of the various physical phenomena.
• To carry out experiments to understand the laws and concepts of Physics.
• To apply the theories learnt and the skills acquired to solve real time problems.
• Would also get some research oriented experience by doing theoretical and experimental projects in the last semester under the supervision of faculty.
• To acquire a wide range of problem solving skills, both analytical and technical and to apply them.
• The course as a whole opens up several career doors for the students interested in various areas of science and technology in private, public and government sectors.
• To enhance the student’s academic abilities, personal qualities and transferable skills this will give them an opportunity to develop as responsible citizens.
• To produce graduates who excel in the competencies and values required for leadership to serve a rapidly evolving global community.

Some of the institutions where physics students can start their carrier are: BARC, DRDO, NPTC, IISc, ISRO, ONGC, BHEL, PRL, NPL, SINP, VECC, IITs, NITs, IIPR etc.

To be eligible for B. Sc Physics admission, students need to graduate 10+2 with aggregate marks of 50-60% with PCBM, or PCM as compulsory subjects. Admission is merit-based most of the time, but some universities hold entrance exams for admission to BSc Physics.

For Indian candidates, candidates should have a B. Sc degree with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics with a minimum of 55% marks. They also should have a minimum of 24 credits in the chosen specialization at the undergraduate level.
