M.Sc. Physics

M.Sc Physics

M.Sc. in Physics is a 2-year postgraduate program that focuses on the importance to the students of a detailed knowledge of physics and physical phenomena of the world. A Master of physics also prepares you to choose a specialized subject for your Ph.D. by exposing you to various fields of physics in great detail. A degree program in the area of Physics will cover the following topics:

  • Classical mechanics
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Theory of fields
  • Statistical mechanics
  • Quantum field
  • Astrophysics
  • Cosmology
  • Condensed matter physics

Additionally, the students pursuing this degree are also given detailed training in applying mathematics to physics. This is done specifically since both these subjects are inter-connected in the teaching prospectus. 

Scope of Masters in Physics

The scope of a master's in physics is very large because right from the health care departments in hospitals to the various stations of NASA- physics is required everywhere. Holding a master's degree in your subject gives you an edge because you have detailed knowledge of a specific subject topic rather than a general overview of the issue.

Career options for Masters in Physics:  

There are many career options for someone who has done their Masters in Physics. Detailed knowledge of physics gives you a scientific perspective on many different things, and many industries require that. Therefore, one can apply it to many fields, including astronomy, space, oil and natural gas, electronics, automobiles, and telecommunication.
