Admission to M.Sc.(Physics), M.Sc. (Chemistry) and M.Sc.(Mathematics)
About the Course:
Two year full time M.Sc. programme in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics :
Science is basic foundation of any technological and engineering creation. In view of the changing scenario at national and international level in field of Science and Technology, there is great demand for basic sciences with considerable knowledge of its applications. VNIT is committed to high academic standards. The M.Sc. courses are designed for four semesters (two years) in such a way that a good basic foundation of subjects is laid and applications along with recent developments are covered. Relative grading will be followed and credits will be allotted based on academic performance. Students will also get theoretical and practical knowledge of computer programming. These M.Sc. programmes provide opportunity to make career in R&D, industries and academic institutions. Opportunity for the placement may be provided by the Institute
I) M.Sc.(Physics) Programme:
M.Sc. (Physics) programme imparts hands on training in theoretical as well as practical aspects of physics, so that student?s ability to tackle physics problems is inculcated in them. This programme lays thrust on fundamentals of core and applied subjects of Physics and also provides knowledge on topics of current interest
In the M.Sc. programme, total 15 theory courses will be taught over four semesters. There will be a seminar and a project. The department has well equipped labs to provide practical skills to students.
Classical, Quantum and Statistical Mechanics and Solid State Physics lay a basic foundation in core subjects of Physics. Courses such as Electronics, Characterization techniques, Materials Science, Thin film techniques and Nanomaterials provide knowledge of applied topics and cover topics of recent interest also. Computer programming will also be taught. Students can look forward to a career in teaching, industry and research. To aid in teaching career, NET syllabus is covered. Electronics and various materials courses of this programme will be of great help for shaping a career in research and industry.
II) M.Sc.(Chemistry) Programme:
The special feature of M.Sc. (Chemistry) is a good foundation of basics and research component through practical skills, which in turn will provide excellent job prospects in Academics, Industries and other field of interest. M.Sc. (Chemistry) will provide competence to tackle frontier area in Green chemistry, Supramolecular chemistry, Sensors, Advanced materials and Advanced organic chemistry.
Two years M.Sc programme in Chemistry will be conducted in four semesters. Communication Skill has been proposed as an audit course in first semester, which will help students develop better expression. In addition to theory and practical courses project phase – I and computational chemistry lab will be introduced in third semester. Fourth semester has two electives courses, basics of electronics and project phase-II. Nine electives have been incorporated in the course considering variety of advanced interest.
III) M.Sc.(Mathematics) Programme:
The objective of the M. Sc. (Mathematics) is to develop highly qualified/trained mathematicians to cater to the needs of the industry, teaching and research institutions. Department of Mathematics has highly qualified, motivated, dynamic and experienced faculty members. The M.Sc.(Mathematics) programme intended to offer a balanced combination of core and applied courses of Mathematics. It also emphasizes advanced developments in the field of analysis, fluid mechanics, mathematical physics and scientific computing. This M.Sc. programme is designed for four semesters. In the first semester a course of Introduction to Computer Programming and another course of communication skill are included which will be helpful to students in their professional career. In addition to the regular courses, three electives courses in third and fourth semesters are available for the students. There is provision for each student to give a seminar in 3rd semester and complete a dissertation in fourth semester under the guidance of highly qualified faculty members. In these activities, student explores a specific topic, surveys the available literature and submits a critical review in the form of a report which may also include original theoretical results and/or results of experimental work. This process provides an initiation into mathematical research and also equips the student with the skills of presentation of research/technical report. This will be useful in developing awareness, aspiration and innovative ability to solve new scientific problems.
Eligibility:
For applying for the M.Sc. Courses, a candidate should satisfy the following criterion: B.Sc/Bachelors degree with minimum 55% marks aggregate or equivalent grade (50% in case of candidates from reserved category) with Physics/Chemistry/Mathematics as one of the main subject to be eligible for the respective course.
