As a B.Sc. Biophysics student, you may be eligible for M.Sc. Physics or M.Sc. Biotechnology programs at IITs, depending on their specific eligibility requirements. Here's a breakdown for both:
M.Sc. Physics at IITs
Eligibility: Most IITs require a Bachelor's degree in Physics or a related field such as B.Sc. in Physics, B.Sc. in Mathematics, or B.Sc. in Applied Physics. Since your degree is in Biophysics, you may meet the requirements if your curriculum includes sufficient physics content, such as mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum physics.
