M.Sc Physics at IIT Gandhinagar (IIT GN) Offline Course

Master of Science in Physics is two years (4 Semester) full-time postgraduate program in science stream offered by Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar.

The focus of the 2 year M.Sc. program is to develop a deep understanding in core areas of Theoretical and Experimental physics, as well as to take advantage of the flexibility of our modern curriculum to introduce a wide range of advanced topics to the students. The flexibility allows students to choose advanced electives and chalk out a path towards a specialization of their choice. The 2 year program is unique in devoting a signigicant component of the minimum credit requirement towards developing research skills. Our program is geared towards creating outstanding students with a solid training in analytical, experimental and computational methods.

The institute has a memorandum of understanding with Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) which has a very strong research program and expertise in many areas of Physics and Astronomy. M.Sc. students enrolled at IITGN will have a unique opportunity to interact directly with faculty members at PRL and take advantage of their world class laboratory facilities. We also envisage PRL faculty teaching core and specialized topics in the M.Sc. program. The institute also hosts a number of visiting scholars from world-reknowned Universities. Students will benefit from close academic interactions with such scholars.

M.Sc programme will be given a monthly scholarship of Rs 5,000.
