Departments of Physics
Post Graduate (M.Sc)
In today’s multidisciplinary world of activities, engineering or technology cannot flourish without the knowledge of advanced Physics. All branches of science and engineering are somehow or other related to Physics.
To unravel the mysteries of Physics, one would require a certain amount of high quality education and training. A Master’s Programme in Physics, with a duration of 2 years, provides students the fundamental knowledge of advanced physics, along with problem-solving skills, and most importantly a thirst for acquiring further knowledge.
After completion of such Programme, students typically choose careers in science or engineering research, academic jobs, careers in information technology, or entrepreneurship.
- Highly qualified and experienced faculty members having PhDs from renowned institutes.
- Comprehensive coverage of core Physics disciplines to prepare for national and competitive exams like CSIR UGC NET, GATE, etc.
- Sophisticated Laboratories for experimental research.
- High Performance Cluster (HPC) for computational work.
- Project work for each student in the 2nd year.
