    Hello Sir.I have completed my masters degree in Physics from Nepal and at the present time I am in South Korea.I want to do my doctoral course in Astrophysics.Could you help me by providing some suggestions which will be useful for me?Thank you Sir and waiting for your reply.

      It's hard to make suggestions when you haven't explained what you're looking for. But in general, look for PhD places on university websites. Since you don't have an astrophysics background, you're probably going to be looking at computational projects, or at instrumentation with optics and similar. But I'm not a PhD student so there may be more projects you're suited too. Hope that helps!
