Electronics

The branch of Physics which deals with the study involving emission, behaviour, and effects of electrons and with electronic devices is known as Electronics.

The study uses various devices such as semiconductors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, nano-structures, and vacuum tubes etc. All applications of electronics involve the transmission of either information or power.

Electronics Science and Electronics Engineering are different. The former only study the theoretical concept while the later apply it practically by designing and constructing electronic circuits etc. Electronics have wide application in our day to day life.

Electronics Courses & Eligibility Criteria

In India, all major universities offer courses in Electronic Science both at graduation and post-graduation level. The minimum eligibility for B.Sc Electronics is + 2 Science with Physics, Chemistry and Maths and for M.Sc in Electronics, one should have completed his/her graduation with Physics or Electronics as the main subject.
