About the Department

The Department of Physics was established in 1990. The Department has been offering M.Sc., Integrated M.Sc. Physics, M. Phil. and Ph.D., (Full-Time and Part-Time) degree courses with its focus on developing new experimental tools and theoretical approaches to understand the behaviour of matter from atom to celestial level. Over the past 25 years it has produced successful alumni who are well placed as teachers, scientists in government sectors, post doctoral fellows of reputed universities and other government organizations. The department is currently sponsored by UGC SAP DRS-II scheme and in the past our department was sponsored by UGC SAP DRS-I and DST FIST Level-I (two times).
