B.Sc., Physics

The Department of Physics was established in the year 2009, Since then the Department has grown tremendously and now offers innovative papers. Every year the students of the Department participate in various activities outside the classroom such as organising field visits to renowned research institutes and centres. Students explore avenues for research which in turn gears them towards higher education in Physics. The Department also collaborates with various industries and conducts workshops and projects which provide hands-on experience, enable students to explore career opportunities and develop entrepreneurial skills. The students are given several opportunities to realise their potential through inter-collegiate cultural programmes. The focus is on exhibitions, paper presentations and lectures on current topics in Physics, which expose students to the various research avenues and current trends in the subject.
