Can Msc physics students apply for the position of scientist using equivalent qualification

gopi 1st Jun, 2025

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, M.Sc. Physics students may apply for the post of Scientist as long as they meet the requisite eligibility criteria mentioned in the job notification. M.Sc. Physics has been equivalently considered for Scientist posts in many research institutions, government organizations (such as ISRO, DRDO, BARC, etc), and in private R&D, especially in fields such as materials science, nuclear physics, theoretical physics, space science, etc.

However, eligibility may differ from organization to organization and there may also be varying specializations specific to certain disciplines. Therefore, it is very important to read and check the official notification from the organization and see if M.Sc. Physics is mentioned under the qualifications or equivalent to that position you are applying for.

How a man become DRDO scientist b after having bca

gopi 31st May, 2025

Hello Aspirant,

It is typically important for a scientist at DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation) to have a strong academic background in science, engineering or technology, given that BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) programme courses are more focused on the IT aspect or computer applications. However, here are some options to consider:

  1. After completing your BCA, you could take a Master’s in an appropriate field, such as Computer Science, Information Technology, Electronics or even a research-focused degree, or other areas of study.
  2. Prepare for a DRDO exam: DRDO recruit scientists through competitive examinations, like the DRDO Scientist ‘B’ exam and this is conducted through the Recruitment and Assessment Centre (RAC). As you may expect, you need a strong technical background and general knowledge in terms of the preparation, as, you should focus your preparation on your field of engineering or science background.
  3. Build Relevant Skills and Experience: Make sure, while pursued your BCA, you worked on a research project, an internship or had a job in any area of defence technology, software development, cybersecurity, or anything computer science related, which might build into position within DRDO.
  4. Look for Other Roles within DRDO: In addition to Scientist ‘B’, there are other roles within DRDO which are technical and/or support roles, which may be found to be important to your BCA aspect.

how atomic structure defined by various scientist

kumardurgesh1802 8th Nov, 2024

Hello there,

The atomic structure has evolved through various scientific discoveries:

  1. Dalton’s Atomic Theory : John Dalton (1808) proposed that atoms are indivisible particles that make up elements. He suggested each element’s atoms are identical but differ from those of other elements.

  2. Thomson’s Model : J.J. Thomson (1897) discovered the electron and proposed the "plum pudding" model, where negatively charged electrons were embedded in a positive sphere.

  3. Rutherford’s Model : Ernest Rutherford (1911) discovered the nucleus by conducting the gold foil experiment. He proposed that an atom has a dense, positively charged nucleus with electrons orbiting around it.

  4. Bohr’s Model : Niels Bohr (1913) refined Rutherford's model by introducing fixed orbits or energy levels where electrons revolve without radiating energy.

  5. Quantum Mechanical Model : Developed by Schrödinger and Heisenberg, this modern model describes electrons as probability clouds, or orbitals, rather than fixed paths. It incorporates principles of quantum mechanics.

These contributions collectively advanced our understanding of atomic structure.
