Department of Physics

ABOUT  THE DEPARTMENT

Knowledge needs Creativity and Creativity needs Diligence. Education plays pivot role in the individual’s life and mould the individual’s character. Education empowers individuals with learning, creativity, awareness about society, science, technology and their applications. Education inculcates good human values. Only education can help the younger generation to become the responsible citizens of this nation.

The objective is to create the basic firm foundation required by the basic science students to plan for appropriate applications of the materials, objects and the material science studied under the science education which in turn provides them the tool for the choice of the proper plan for the right application

The Department was established along with the Institution in the year 2006. The Department cum Lab is in the first floor of the college; where nearly 40 students can perform experiments at a time. The Department has two spacious laboratories for mechanical and electronics experiments along with one dark room for optics experiments. Both laboratories are well furnished and well equipped with scientific instruments. The Department has experienced and dedicated faculty members. The Department has implemented CBCS (Choice based credit system) scheme as per UGC regulations. Our department has one computer with internet connection and department library with a collection of books from Pioneer authors in physics. The students of this department are encouraged to engage in extra-curricular activities like demonstration using projects and experimental work (exhibitions), Seminars, Quiz programs etc., Special Lectures and workshops are arranged. Implementing NEP from the academic year 2021-22

Laboratory Facilities

We have a well-equipped and two spacious laboratories which can accommodate more number of Students comfortably.

The students perform experiments related to the following topics:

  • Electricity & Magnetism
  • Light
  • Electronics
  • Mechanics
  • Heat and Thermodynamics
