Yes, you can pursue M.Sc-Ph.D. through JAM (Joint Admission Test for Masters) in Chemistry. JAM is an entrance exam conducted for admission to the M.Sc. Programme at various IITs, NITs, and other participating institutions across India. If you qualify in JAM Chemistry. You can apply for M.Sc. Chemistry at any of the participating institutions, and some institutions also offer M.Sc-Ph.D. dual degree programs. You will have to fulfill the eligibility criteria set by the respective institutions to be eligible for admission to the programme. Once you complete your M.Sc. Programme, you can apply for the Ph.D. programme at various institutions in India or abroad. The admission process for a Ph.D. programme may vary depending on the institution's requirements, and you may have to appear for an entrance exam, submit research proposals, and appear for an interview before being offered admission to the programme.

IUCAA Ph.D. Programme
To be admitted to IUCAA's Ph.D. programme, you must first appear for either the following two tests:
Jont Entrance Screening Test (JEST) [ http://www.jest.org.in/ ]
IUCAA-NCRA Admission Test (INAT)
Eligibility:
The academic year at IUCAA begins in August every year. Students, who expect to complete their M.Sc. (in Physics / Electronics / Astronomy / Applied Mathematics) or B.E. / B.Tech. / M.E. / M.Tech. degree (any branch) by August are eligible to apply. In addition, talented final year B.Sc., 1st year M.Sc. (in Physics / Electronics / Astronomy / Applied Mathematics) and 2nd / 3rd year B.E. / B.Tech. (any branch) students can also apply to be PRE-SELECTED for research scholarship (to do Ph.D.) at IUCAA.
We are looking for highly motivated students with consistently good academic record. Students who have already completed the above degrees can also apply. Selection to research scholarship is through a written test and interviews.

A BBA graduate can start off as an Executive, Associate, Business Development Manager or an Assistant Manager in various organizations such as:
Manufacturing companies
Export and trading houses
Financial concerns
Banks
NGOs
PSUs
Multinational corporations
Initially, the pay will not be that appealing and most of the students are hired as interns and are given stipend instead of salary. But with experience and exposure, the salary bar would surely get a hike and an MBA after BBA/BBM would definitely fetch the student more lucrative jobs. Average offer you may expect is around 4-5 lakhs/annum. Job roles will be as Operations Manager, Financial Analyst, Executive Assistant, Marketing Manager and HR Manager.

EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS
The minimum educational qualification required to pursue this course is 10+2 Science stream schooling with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics subjects. Students should have passed 12th Board examination from a Recognized Board. Minimum marks criteria may exist and is generally around 50-60% marks in Board Examination.
B.Sc. Degree holders (subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) may also pursue this course. Minimum marks criteria may exist and is generally between 50-60% marks in final year of Degree program.
Engineering (B.E./B.Tech.) Graduates (any branch) may also pursue this course. Minimum marks criteria may exist and is generally between 50-60% marks in final year of Degree program.

Eligibility & Admission
The basic requirement for the eligibility to get the admission to BAMS programme is qualifying the 10+2 examination with science stream. The candidate must have the physics, chemistry and biology in 12th class. The candidate should have to go through the national level entrance examination like NEET (National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test). Candidates also apply for state level examinations such as:
OJEE (Odisha Joint Entrance Examination)
KEAM (Kerala Engineering, Agriculture and Medical)
