Syllabus
MSc or Master in Science is a 2-year degree programme meant for graduates of the science discipline. Once the students complete this course, they can opt for career opportunities in several fields such as biotechnology, medical factories, space research, or government survey departments. The area of specialisation plays an important role in determining the career opportunities after this post-graduation course.
MSc allows students to complete their studies in various fields like Physics, Chemistry, Biotechnology, Maths, etc. It is also possible to do an MSc in two different subjects. The MSc Physics syllabus is given below, for example:
