Yes, it is possible for a person with an engineering degree to pursue a Master of Science (MSc) in physics. While a bachelor's degree in physics provides a more direct path to a master's degree in the same field, many graduate programs in physics accept students from diverse backgrounds, including engineering.
However, there might be some prerequisites or additional coursework requirements for individuals with an engineering background who wish to pursue an MSc in physics. These requirements vary between institutions and specific programs. Some universities might expect applicants with an engineering degree to complete certain foundational physics courses to ensure they have the necessary knowledge and skills to succeed in a physics graduate program.
It is advisable to research the specific requirements of the graduate programs you are interested in and reach out to the admissions offices or program coordinators to get accurate and detailed information about their admission criteria and any additional coursework that might be necessary.
