Is JNCASR good for an MSc in Chemistry?

SM
Sandipan Mukharjee Posted On : November 26th, 2021
B.Sc(Hons.) Chemistry, Presidency University, Kolkata (2020)

The general coursework for M.Sc Chemistry at JNCASR is not the best. But the research interface makes the course worthwhile. All the faculty members of the department are actively involved in research. They regularly publish in well-reputed journals. The research quality and the infrastructural facilities offered are great.

If you want a rigorous core curriculum, then you should first consider state universities followed by IITs. JNCASR is also a decent option for pursuing your M.Sc Chemistry degree. It offers specialization in either Material Chemistry or Chemical Biology. If research is your long-term goal, then choosing JNCASR Bangalore will be the best option.

AS
Aditya Sarkar Posted On : January 24th, 2023
Career Counsellor| MBA Coach - Author

Yes, in fact Bachelors is necessary for any Masters course. So in order to get admission in MSc Financial Mathematics, you will have to complete Bachelors in Financial Mathematics first. 

Now coming to your question, Honors in Margs is necessary for admission in MSc Financial Mathematics, I don't think so because I have many friends who are pursuing MSc in Financial Mathematics despites graduating from universities that don’t even offer Honors in Maths. I think all you need is a graduation in Maths.

For detailed information look up on the official website of MSU or contact an alumni.

How's the M.Sc. statistics at Bharathiar University?

HJ
Harsha Jha, Posted On : November 23rd, 2021
PhD Statistics, Bharathiar University (2023)

One of my friends studied at Bharathiar University (BU). According to him, if you can study on your own without the regular guidance of teachers, you can opt for BU.

Here if you want to learn something, you have to do it for yourself, as the faculty members wont guide you step by step. BU has a huge library from which you can get the required study materials. So if you are someone who does not require a methodical guidance and can learn on your own, BU will be fine for you.
