M.Phil. (Biochemistry) is a post-graduate Academic Master’s Degree in the field of biochemistry specialization. It is most commonly one to two year program which is devoted to research work and learning in different fields of biochemistry such as molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, enzymology. The course requires the students to carry out rigorous research under the supervision of a guide and to produce a thesis at the end of the course.
The entrance examinations for the admission to M.Phil. that are acceptable to the concerned institute are as follows: The common biochemistry entrance examination for admission into various universities include: CSIR-UGC NET exam for JRF, UGC NET , GATE, Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST), JAM Exam, Institute/university level examinations such as TIFR, JNUEE, BHU PET. Others admitting students directly depending on the percentage obtained in the post graduate degree.
