Break-up of Course
and
Detailed Syllabus

M. Sc. (Physics)
(Semester Pattern)

RTM Nagpur University, Nagpur
(2005)
P r e f a c e

The syllabus of the M. Sc. (Physics) was revised in 2000 on the recommendation of UGC. Since the model syllabus provided by the UGC was for semester pattern, then board under the chairmanship of Dr. V. Tabhane has formulated M. Sc.-I syllabus in yearly pattern by merging two papers of Sem-I and Sem-II appropriately. Due to lack of time M. Sc. –II syllabus was continued except an introduction of computational physics (as per model syllabus) in place of quantum mechanics, which was shifted to M. Sc-I.
It was long due for modification of M. Sc.-II year syllabus in accordance with the UGC guidelines and model syllabus.  Also, during the teaching to M. Sc.-I at departments/colleges it was felt that a minor alteration is necessary to keep continuity and aptness.         
Keeping all above factors in view the physics board has invited various pertinent teachers and senior (retired) professors/teachers/ and organized a series of meetings and formulated two schemes viz. one for annual pattern and other for semester pattern. While formulating the present syllabus in addition to the specialization suggested in model syllabus of UGC, a few more specializations are included by taking into consideration of availability of specialized experimental laboratory as well as faculty with the Department.
Board in indebted to all those who have actively participated in discussions and subsequently in framing the syllabus, and also for their suggestions, comments.

P r e a m b l e

As a matter of fact, updating and restructuring of the curriculum must continue as a perpetual process, to meet the need and requirement of the society as well as in order to enhance the quality along with slandered of education. Accordingly, the Physics Board of RTM Nagpur University taken initiation and put in efforts bring this syllabus and recommends to implement at the earliest.  
The post graduate course in physics has been formed for formal training in subject for the students and rigorous training would require phased teaching for its full decimation. Thus committee recommends that the M.Sc., i.e. post graduation in Physics, Semester system should be followed.
This syllabus framed in order to impart teaching should be oriented so as to provide the student depth of knowledge in Physics, The project, as a compulsory paper, in the final semester is introduced so as the student should venture albeit in a preliminary way into research field both in theory and experiment.
In addition to the state of art specializations in Physics embodying, Condense matter Physics, Materials Science, Nuclear and Particle Physics, Electronics, Spectroscopy and X-ray spectroscopy & crystallography, Informatics and Molecular electronics, in order to keep pace with the present front line developments.  
In order to have flexibility in curriculum and permit the students to shape their career as per their choice in the domain of Physics, cafeteria approach has been followed. Each specialization is subdivided into four papers. A M. Sc. student can opt for any two special papers out of seven specializations in each of the III and IV semester.
 Another new feature for M. Sc. in Physics is that there is one paper in the final semester as ‘Elective Paper’ where students will have the option of selecting any one out of a large number (as many as fifteen) of Elective papers each of these being of ‘Frontier Topics in Physics’
