Hello Anagha,unfortunately,harldy there is any government college that is going to provide you an degree in Engibeering Physics but you always have a way with private colleges.But,as usual,they will charge too much.I will suggest to take a drop year.

Thanks for connecting.Team Careers360.

Hello,

Engineering Physics is a unique branch of engineering discipline with a combination of physics, mathematics, electrical engineering and other advanced technology subjects. It is study of basic scientific principles in designing an equipment that includes electronics, electro-mechanical systems used in measurements, communications as well as acquisition of data. Graduates in Engineering Physics are provided with a strong base in the science & physics with engineering and are prepared to find solutions for complex technological problems in nuclear science, aerospace, computing, etc.

With a good exposure and broad view on Mathematics, Material Science, Physics, Electronics, Computers & Optics, engineering physics graduates have a wide range of career options available in the research and innovation in the industry and the academia. Most of the curriculum models has emphasis on the basic physics with the underlying technology. 

Programmes offered:

B.Tech – Engineering Physics – four year programme offered by IIT Mumbai, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IIT Hyderabad, IIT Mandi, Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad.

Ther're also internship opportunity present at IISc. Bengaluru,IISER Kolkata,IIT Roorkee,DRDO,

BHEL,DoT,(Delhi),C-MET (Hyderabad),IIIT (Hyderabad),BESU, (Kolkata),Advant Technologies Inc, (Bengaluru)

Top recruiters are EATON,Applied Materials,Oracle,IBM,Mu Sigma,Wipro,ZS Associates,Axtria 

Job prospects

 In India one can get you promising job in the government organisations like the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), and National Physical Laboratory, and similar organizations. Teaching and research is yet another option. There are some institutions with centers funded by the central government to carry out research for central and state governments. Other jobs may include serving as aerospace engineer, nuclear engineer and materials scientist, as well as acoustical engineer, medical physicist and optical engineer. Apart from the above, there are career options available in systems engineering, teaching, medicine, law (especially intellectual property or patent law), science writing, history of science, philosophy of science, science policy, energy policy, government, or management in technical fields.

Following are the Research Areas in Engineering Physics-

• Space Physics & Solar Physics
• Condensed Matter Physics & Materials Physics
• Photonics and Fiber Optics
• Remote Sensing
• Energy Studies
• Energy (photovoltaic, battery technology, fuel cells)
• Transportation
• Quantum information science
• Semiconductors
• Materials development
• Bio/ medical Physics

Prospects of higher studies after graduation-

There're opportunity to do M.Tech / M S by research in the following areas;

• Solid state electronic materials
• Remove Sensing
• Wireless Networks
• Quality, Reliability and Operations Research
• Nanosciences / Nanotechnology
• Energy technology
• Environment management.
• Geographic Information Systems       

Thank you!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

To become a scientist at ISRO one first needs to have opted Math and Physics as his subjects at 10+2 level and have a thorough basic knowledge of these subjects. Getting admission in IIST (Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology) can be the easiest ticket to get absorbed in ISRO as a scientist/engineer

Hello Surbhi, Based on last year cutoff of general candidates, the closing rank for the unreserved category was 1353(In AIIMS Guntur). If we convert 1353 rank in marks the marks would come somewhere around 560-570. But for being the sake of safety you should target 600.

If you are really interested in Engineering Physics or doing research in that field then it is very good option. In Engineering Physics you basically have to study the topics which you study in general physics like quantum is the most important of all and like that only ther topics are also there. 

See placements are also good in this course , but mostly people go for phd and research programs in US or Germany etc.

So you have both options.

Thank you.

If you are passionate about engineering physics , then only you are going for IIT Delhi. See if you talk about placements then it is no less than core jobs. Companies visit exclusively for Engineering Physics just like google visiting for CS students.

So only one thing is required , you should be maintaining your grad i.e. CG. The better your cg is more the chances of getting placements as rest the IIT tag does.

You also have another option going for higher studies in USA or GERMANY.

Hope it helps.

Thank You.

Hello aspirant,

Engineering physics is a bachelor course that deals with the study of many various disciplines of mathematics, engineering and theoretical physics, indeed one of the engineering program that has the most content in the form of theory. The need of engineering physics is to lessen the gap between applied engineering and theoretical science. It offers an enormous figure of program in basic science and also has many applications-oriented core engineering programs, hence making it different from absolute sciences as well.

Hope, it helps you.

Hii Sahil,

The placements for graduates in Engineering physics in IIT Guwahati are really good.Engineering Physics is an enormous branch.About 75% students get placed every year.The average package given is around 15 lakhs p.a.
