| Students from
all over the country are admitted on the basis of
merit and regional quota in M.Sc. and on the basis
of pure merit in M.Phil and Ph.D. programmes. A
large number of scholarships, research fellowships
and stipends are available for pursuing research
for M.Phil and Ph.D. Physics degrees at the department
which include University Fellowships, Mrs. Mumtaz
Riazuddin Fellowship, Shabuddin Memorial Scholarship,
Dr. A.Q. Khan M.Phil Fellowships, Dr. Riazuddin
Siddiqui Ph.D. Fellowship. Apart from these, most
faculty members have their own research projects
funded by national and international funding agencies
such as ASICTP, HEC, PSF etc. These projects include
fellowships for young physicists, which may be utilized
for research leading to M.Phil or Ph.D. degrees. |
