M.Sc. Physics M.Sc. Physics

M.Sc. Physics

GITAM’s MSc in Physics is a rigorous 2-year postgraduate programme designed to provide students with an in-depth understanding of the phenomena that govern the physical world. Ideal for those who wish to explore the intricacies of physics, this programme, offered at our Bengaluru campus, delves into the complexities of the universe and prepares students for advanced research and professional practice.

Delivered by the Department of Physics, the programme combines advanced theoretical learning with practical training, equipping students with the skills needed to tackle complex scientific challenges. The curriculum places a strong emphasis on the application of mathematics to physics, reflecting the interconnectedness of these disciplines. This detailed training ensures that students develop the analytical and problem-solving abilities required for a successful career in research, academia, or industry.

M.Sc. Physics

Eligibility

A minimum of 50% or 5.0 CGPA aggregate marks in B.Sc. with Physics, Mathematics and any other allied subject or its equivalent and Qualified in GAT.

Scope of the Programme

Students pursuing an MSc in Physics gain extensive exposure to advanced theoretical concepts and practical, hands-on laboratory experience, particularly through experiments that reinforce and expand upon their existing knowledge.

Holding a master’s degree in physics provides graduates with a distinct advantage, offering detailed knowledge of specialised topics within the field rather than a broad overview. This specialised expertise equips graduates to contribute to a wide range of fields that demand a deep understanding of physics, from cutting-edge scientific research and technological innovation to roles in education, policy, and beyond.

Whether pursuing a career in research, engineering, technology, or even exploring opportunities in finance, education, or policy-making, the advanced knowledge gained through this programme opens doors to numerous high-impact career paths.

Additionally, the MSc in Physics serves as a strong foundation for those considering a PhD, offering exposure to various specialised fields within physics and helping students to identify their area of interest for further study.
