The MPhil full form is Master of Philosophy, which is a 2-year-long postgraduate research degree program, and Philosophy means the study of the general ideas about knowledge, truth, right and wrong, religion, and the nature and meaning of life. The MPhil programme in India has been discontinued by the UGC as part of the NEP 2020.

The exact difference between an MPhil and an MSc is their components. MSc is more of a classroom-based degree, including lectures, seminars, and practical work within a specific subject area of Science.
Meanwhile, MPhil is a research-based program, one level down from the PhD, but the structure is almost the same. In short, an MSc is the best fit if you're interested in regular classroom studies with in-depth knowledge in a subject, and if you're into research, go for an MPhil.
However, the UGC has discontinued the MPhil degree programme as part of the NEP 2020.

Well, it depends on your interests. Psychology is indeed a good specialisation to pursue an MPhil in. Since the Psychology study also requires students to research the human mind and behavior, and MPhil is a research program, the combination of these disciplines will give students a strong practical training in the respective field and also great career options.

An MPhil can be done in subjects like Anthropology, Economics, English, History, Psychology, Sociology, and many others, but the University Grants Commission (UGC) of India has discontinued it as part of the NEP 2020. Though you can search for colleges that still offer an MPhil degree.

Hi,  
See, both of them are advanced research degrees, though their level of study and the depth of research involved differ. While an MPhil is a master's degree, a PhD is the highest academic degree, requiring real, in-depth research.
But there's no point comparing both courses, since the UGC discontinued the MPhil course as a part of the National Education Policy (NEP) India 2020. Now, the PhD is the only primary route to research-oriented career fields.
