i want to pursue Engg. Physics(EP) at IIT madras(in case anyone didn't knwo IIT's are the premier Technological institutions of India) ...
That's because i am interested in physics but at the sam etime don't want to get too theoritical i.e also want to see it's apllication part at the same i don't want to go into any of the engg because i don't know what i liek electrical/mech or what?
so i want to pursue EP?
i think that wud give me the best chance to enter R&D by various companies...though i am not sure about this...
anyone here knows what are the carrer prospects of thsi course?

I would have thought engineering physics from a top rank school is about as good as you can get!
Good luck.
 
IIT madras was ranke dthe second best this time in our country(India) after IIT Kanpur ...So it's great...

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
