Hello Samuel,

To do graduation in IT, you have two options, either you leave your course in middle and start all over again as a first year in UG course of IT, or you can just finish up your B.Sc. in Physics and then go for another Undergraduate in IT or you can do your Post graduation in Information Technology. 

If you want to leave your course in the middle, then you can apply for following UG programmes that are related to the IT field-

1) Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (B.Sc. IT)

2) Bachelor of Engineering in Information Technology (B.E IT)

3) Bachelors of Technology in Information Technology (B. Tech IT)

While admission for the first is based on the merit of class 12th marks (Higher Secondary examination), the other two have admission based on entrance exams such as JEE or state level engineering entrance exams (private too).

Top colleges for B.Sc. Information Technology (IT)-

St. Xavier's College, Mumbai

Elphinstone College, Mumbai

Jai Hind College, Mumbai

VELS University, Chennai

Top colleges for BE/B.Tech -

Indian Institute of Technology Bombay

Indian Institute of Technology Delhi

Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur

Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur

Indian Institute of Technology Madras

Master of Science in Information Technology (M.Sc IT)

If you want to do a Masters in IT, then you can go for M.Sc Information Technology. This you can do even after graduation in physics. Because eligibility criteria mentioned in most of the universities is-

Any degree with Maths or Statistics or Mathematical Physics as main / allied subject

The admission can be based on either entrance exam or merit or both.

Top Colleges for M.Sc Information Technology are-

The NEW College, Chennai

Stella Maris College, Chennai

DAV College, Chandigarh

Barkatullah University, Bhopal

VELS University, Chennai

Hindustan College of Arts and Science, Coimbatore

M.Tech or M.E in Information Technology

For doing ME or M.Tech IT, you need to have an engineering degree (B.E/B.Tech) in the relevant field. Therefore, you cannot do that with Physics UG degree.

I hope this will help you. If you have any other doubt or query, feel free to ask.

All the best!
