Ph.D. in Physics 

at School of Arts and Sciences, Navrangpura

The Selection criteria set for the MBA programme at the School of Arts and Sciences, Ahmedabad University is based on performance in national-level entrance exams such as CAT, XAT, CMAT, or NMAT. Along with that, candidates also need to fulfill the prescribed eligibility requirements set for the respective specialisation.

Below are some of the general subjects that you can pick during your BTech studies, as these course will advance your technical and practical knowledge:

Mathematics: A mathematical background includes understanding of Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations and Statistic Stamina.
Physics: Mechanics, electricity & magnetism, kinetics & dynamics, thermodynamics and wave & optics.
Chemistry: This common general chemistry course involves sub-topics such as organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry among others.
Programming: C+,  Python,  Java
Engineering fundamentals: Statistics, dynamics, fluids and their action, heat and its work, properties of matter
Engineering design: Aesthetics, reasoning process, design tools and methods, using of computer-aided design (CAD).

Rest, the subjects taught in the BTech courses would be specialization-specific, based on your chosen field.

No, CAT is not compulsory. The School of Arts and Sciences, Ahmedabad University accepts scores from national-level entrance exams such as CAT, XAT, CMAT, or NMAT. Candidates can appear for any one of these exams that aligns best with their preparation. As long as applicants secure a competitive score in any one of these entrance tests and meet the required eligibility criteria, they will be considered for admission.

Humanities as a stream provides a wide range of courses that can be studied after completing their 12th grade. Pursuing any of these degrees prepares you to understand the various levels of humanities and, as a result, carve out an appropriate job path. Candidates in the humanities can apply for positions in the government sector, such as banking firms, government ministries, legal firms, and political analysts.

Content Writer, Civil Services, Human Resource Manager, Defense Services, Lawyer, Journalist, Counsellor, and Therapist positions are available. As freshers, humanities graduates can expect to earn between INR 2-6 LPA.

The salary of an engineer depends on various factors like specialization, role, organization, and work. The average starting salary in India for a fresh engineering graduate can range from INR 3-5 Lacs per annum. The salaries vary according to the number of years of experience as well as location. Many companies offer greater salary packages in metropolitan cities which are hub for IT companies as well as other reputed MNCs. The salary also varies as per the entry level of the candidate. After gaining experience of 2-5 years, candidates can expect a salary of INR 8-12 Lacs per annum and subsequently shift from technical to managerial positions.

BSc Physics could be a difficult course to pursue for students. Here's why:

• Complex theories are those which demand an understanding of abstract ideas, that at the beginning might be hard to learn, for example, the theory of relativity, quantum mechanics, and the theory of particles.
• Application of Concepts: The practice and application of the theories developed requires analysis thought processing and logical reasoning to develop complicated problem-solving abilities.
• Comprehensive Curriculum: A wide range of subjects span throughout including quantum mechanics, astrophysics, classical mechanics, and electromagnetism.
• Strong Foundation: Since it is the very foundation of physics, build a strong foundation for mathematics.

Engineering job profiles vary across the industry as well as the domain where the person is recruited. Since the popular industries include petrochemicals, civil engineering, construction and other allied industries, the following job profiles are very popular and offer promising career opportunities:

Note- The above salary has been taken from external sources, and hence may vary.

Physics is a promising and rewarding field to work in India. And the reasons are:

• Institutes of Eminence: India is home to several esteemed institutions that are well-known for their physics research, including the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), and Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs).
• Multidisciplinary Opportunities: Studying physics can lead to opportunities in a variety of interdisciplinary fields, including material science, biophysics, nanotechnology, and more.
• Industry Relevance: Graduates in physics are in high demand in fields like technology, data analysis, finance, and engineering that call for analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Competition: Academic and research fields can be very competitive, requiring commitment and lifelong learning.
• Funding: It can occasionally be difficult to obtain funding for research projects.
  Hope this helps!
