Physics is a branch of Science
which deals about physical world and so it’s one of the interesting subject to
study. Sometimes there is no limit for which can cover this subject of Physics
starting from the formation of this Universe to un-measurable distance of space.
With it’s various branches viz., Mathematical Physics, Quantum Physics, Atomic
& Molecular Physics, Optical Physics, Nano-particle physics, Astronomy,
solid State Matter, Electronics, Nuclear Physics etc., you can enjoy every bits
of topics with a lot of excitement.
As you know science needs
continuous process of learning unlike Arts, Commerce as a stream of study which
you can opt to change after intermediate or Graduation or Master’s degree, So I
suggest you that If you are so passionate about any of the science subject to
pick up for career option then don’t change your mind and stuck to it till you
die. But this is for your information that like Chemical formulae are language
of learning Chemistry, Mathematics is the language of Physics, without
mathematical expressions we can’t express our language of Physics. Hence you
should have good sound knowledge of Mathematics also for opting physics.
The Career of Physics starting
from intermediate level of study till upto Research is given below
1. Intermediate level :
Taking Physics
as an option along with Mathematics and Chemistry which is widely known as PCM
group is most suitable for entering to most of the engineering fields of study
apart from few of the fields like Biomedical, Biotechnology etc.
Above this for
those who want to join Defence through NDA or Engineering entry or SCRA(Railway
Apprentice), PCM is again a compulsory option with English as compulsory
subject and 70% of PCM is required for Engineering entry in Defence which gives
a secured job as an officer with B.Tech degree from reputed University of India
like JNU, New delhi.
Not only this
for admission to most of the top Universities for doing graduation in physics
Honrs or General Course, you need to score high percentage in Intermediate
Board Examination. If you look into the trend of admission cut off marks for DU
top colleges , you need to have 98-99 % in PCM in intermediate.
2. Graduation in Physics :
After completion of graduation with Physics (Honrs) or
Physics (Electronics Honrs) or PCM (General) depending upon options provided in
various universities and Autonomous Colleges of India, you have a lot options
to choose. Among them one of the best option for those who are passionate about
the study of physics is opting for Master’s degree in Physics and looking for research
and development as career. For master’s degree, selection process varied from
university to university, and from college to college, some are with entrance
examination and some goes with cut off marks of graduation. Prior to this one
need to check which specialization options are given in that particular University
or College, options may be of Electronics, Solid State Physics, Astrophysics,
etc. Apart from this every student can dream of joining to any of the reputed
IITs or Top Research Institutes like IISc(Indian Institute of Sciences
Bangalore), TIFR, BARC, PRL, NPRL, S.N. BOSE, RRCAT, etc through JAM/JEST which
is organized by any of the above IITs or Institutes every year for Integrated
Courses like Dual M.Sc-Ph.D. or Integrated Ph.D. or MS (Research) and fields of
study may be Applied Physics or with certain Specialization. Otherwise, in
General after completion of Graduation in Physics, you can apply for various
Competitive Examinations like UPSC Civil Services Exam, Indian Forest Service
(IFS), CPF or State Public Service Commissions or SSC, Banking etc. For joining
Defence your Graduation in Physics gives a wider scope as you can apply for
IAF, Navy, Army either through CDS or through their SSC schemes. Another option
is also there which is quite demanding that is doing B.Ed and go for teaching
line as demand for Science Teachers is very high.
3. MASTERs
DEGREE IN PHYSICS
After
completion of Masters Degree from any of the reputed University or College, you
can apply for NET/JRF which is eligibility for joining as a lectureship or for
going Research in any of the Research Centres or various Departments of
Universities. Apart from this you can apply for GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test
for Engineers) and after clearing this you can opt for M.Tech in certain
specializations which are offered in IITs, NITs and Research Institutes. And if
you want to go for research Institutes or Universities in Other Countries then
you have to clear English Proficiency Test Exams according to the requirement
of the University or Institute or through GRE. All these research options are
with Scholarship except those who are doing research without any of the above
mentioned Examination’s Score Card. Not only these you can apply for Scientific
Officers/Scientist recruitment through BARC’s recruitment which is conducted
every year. Apart from these options you can apply for PGT in Kendriya Vidyalaya
Sangsthan and Navodya Vidyalayas without completion of B.Ed. And still you have
some more options for joining to Defence if you have academic age in IAF, NAVY,
ARMY through their special recruitment like Executive Officers and Meteorological
staffs.
4. DOCTOR
OF PHILOSOPHY IN PHYSICS
After completion of Ph.D in physics,
you are almost sure to become a scientist to any of the research centres of
India through their regular recruitment or Going for teaching in Universities
or Colleges of India. Apart from this you can still have option for going
higher in your passionate Subject Physics by doing Post Doctoral Research in
any of the Research Centres of India which have facilities for high level of
laboratory or can go to Abroad.
There is no
limit in this Universe as per Physics, hence there is also no limit for options
after taking your passionate subject physics. The above mentioned options and
career graph is very few out of the thousands of options which you can have. Dream
Dream and chase any of your dream, you can get it.
Wish you all
the best
