Thinking about pursuing an M.Sc Physics (MSCPH)? This two-year program requires you to earn 72 credits for your degree and certification, with each credit accounting for 30 hours of dedicated study. Admissions for our online program are offered twice annually, in January and July, making it convenient to start your journey.
You’ll complete 10 courses in your first year and 10 in your second year. Once you’ve successfully enrolled, we’ll send the complete MSCPH syllabus for both years directly to the address you provided during admission. This course consists of four semester. Each year has 2 semester.
IGNOU MSCPH Programme Objectives :
- To build a comprehensive foundation in fundamental and advanced concepts in Physics;
- To improve the analytical skills necessary for application of the Physics concepts in problem solving;
- To impart adequate training in practical skills and provide hands-on laboratory experience;
- To equip learners with skills to carry out computer-aided investigations in the Physical Sciences;
- To enhance the understanding of interdisciplinary nature of modern day science through elective courses; and
- To enable in-service personnel to upgrade their knowledge and skills for professional development.
