SUMMARY

Individuals with an agriculture degree can pursue scholarships for a master's in physics, provided they excel in the GRE Physics test. Graduate programs prioritize candidates with relevant coursework in fields closely related to physics, such as engineering physics, physical chemistry, or applied mathematics. It is essential to leverage any agricultural experience in applications to enhance competitiveness. Persistence and flexibility are crucial in securing funding opportunities.

PREREQUISITES
  • GRE Physics test preparation
  • Understanding of core physics concepts
  • Familiarity with related fields such as engineering physics or physical chemistry
  • Experience in writing compelling scholarship applications
NEXT STEPS
  • Research graduate programs in engineering physics and their admission requirements
  • Explore scholarship opportunities specifically for interdisciplinary studies
  • Learn about the application of physics in agriculture to strengthen your profile
  • Review successful scholarship application examples from candidates with non-physics backgrounds
USEFUL FOR

Prospective graduate students with an agriculture background seeking to transition into physics, scholarship applicants looking for interdisciplinary funding opportunities, and individuals interested in the intersection of physics and agricultural applications.

hello ,
Can i have any scholarships for master for physics?
for one had graduated from agriculure college..
if i passed the Gre test -physics by high degree?
is that pssible? or i had to be graduated from the science coolege-physics?

If your post is a representation of your writing style, I doubt you will receive many scholarships.

That said, look at a few schools that are doing research you are interested in. If your degree is in agriculture, perhaps look for an area within physics that has an application to agriculture. Leverage your experience in your application to make yourself a better candidate.
Where there's a will, there's a way. Persistence and flexibility are the keys to finding funding.

Doing well on the GRE is not a substitute for an education in physics. Graduate programs will consider you if you've come through a program that is at arm's length from a physics program and has included most of the core educational components. These are programs like: engineering physics, physical chemistry, astronomy etc. You also might be competitive from a program like electrical engineering or applied mathematics with appropriate coursework.

Typical agriculture degrees don't contain enough physics to be seriously considered.
