Department of Physics

Introduction

Physics department was established in 1999 to impart the knowledge of physics to the B.Sc students. The subject was introduced as  the optional subject under B.Sc degree to introduce some of the concepts of physics and its effect on contemporary world. The department has a well equipped laboratory of capacity 40 students at a time. The experiments in the laboratory  based on optics, mechanics, electricity, magnetism etc. The large collection of the books on Physics are available in department library as well as institute library.

 

Vision
