Hello,

Yes, it is usually possible to take MSc in Forestry after completing BSc in Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. However, it depends on the university and their eligibility criteria.

Some universities may ask for a background in biology or related subjects, while others may allow admission based on your overall graduation and entrance test scores.

You should check the specific requirements of the universities you want to apply to. Sometimes, they may ask for a bridge course or some basic knowledge in forestry-related subjects before starting MSc.

So, it’s best to contact the admission office of the universities for clear guidance.

Hope it helps !

The admission process for BSc Forestry and BSc Horticulture programs varies depending on the specific universities and colleges offering these courses. There isn't a single, universally fixed date for all institutions. However, I can provide a general timeline and some key points to help you understand when to expect these admissions to begin.

Typically, the admission process for undergraduate programs like BSc Forestry and BSc Horticulture starts after the completion of the 12th-grade board examinations. In India, this usually means that applications open sometime between May and July. The exact timing depends on when the board results are announced and when universities release their admission notifications.

Many state agricultural universities and central agricultural universities conduct their own entrance examinations for these programs. For example, the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) conducts the AIEEA (All India Entrance Examination for Admission) for admission to various undergraduate and postgraduate agricultural programs, including forestry and horticulture. If you're aiming for admission into ICAR-affiliated universities, you'll need to keep an eye on the ICAR website for their official notifications regarding the AIEEA exam dates and application deadlines.

Similarly, state agricultural universities will release their own admission notifications, often through their official websites or through advertisements in local newspapers. It is very important to check the official university websites of the universities you are interested in. These websites will contain all the necessary information regarding application forms, eligibility criteria, and admission schedules.

For private universities or colleges offering BSc Forestry and BSc Horticulture, the admission process may have a slightly different timeline. They might start accepting applications earlier, sometimes as early as March or April, and they may have their own entrance tests or selection processes.

Therefore, to stay informed about the admission process, regularly visit the official websites of the universities or colleges you're interested in. Also, keep an eye on educational portals and newspapers that publish admission-related information. Being proactive and regularly checking these resources will ensure that you don't miss any important deadlines.
