hi,

basically master of science has theory as well as mathematical formulation of the particular stream, however m.sc course is based on the any particular topic of your b.sc stream, for example you have studied b.sc in chemistry, you may take organic or inorganic or industrial chemistry as specialized subject in m.sc course. however there would be theoretical as well as mathematical explanations as per the requirement of subjects. In case you wants only theoretical studies, you may take m.sc in nutrition, m.sc in botany/ zoology etc.
