Physics is a branch of pure science, it deals with the study and analysis of physical phenomena that takes place around us, the nature of the forces responsible for them, and accurate measurement of the physical parameters involved, their interdependence and the laws governing them.
The laboratory sessions are intended to give the students a hands-on experience of the experiments that enable the verification of the knowledge gained in the theory classes.
Knowledge of Physics enable the students to apply their problem solving skills and rational thinking of the students to practical situations in life
The department of physics was established in the year 2002 with the installation a Bachelor of Science Degree. Post Graduate Degree was brought into the fold in 2003 and M. Phil., in 2012 to promote the students to acquire research attitude and aptitude.
The physics students are selected for various companies through Campus Interview
