FacilitiesLibrary
The Department of Physics has one Departmental Library having about 5000 books and subscription to 30 Research Journals covering different fields of specializations like Materials Science, Solid State Physics, Optics & Spectroscopy, Nuclear Physics, Electronics, High Energy Physics etc.
Teaching Labs
The Department of Physics has 10 Teaching Labs for M.Sc. (previous) and M.Sc. (final) year students. In M.Sc. Previous Lab., students perform experiments based on general topics like Optics, Lasers, Electronics, Nuclear Physics, Solid State Physics etc. In M.Sc. Final Lab., students perform experiments linked to the various specialisations. For each optional paper, a separate Lab is maintained. Some of the facilities of various research labs are also made available to the students for a better exposure of the subject. Our labs are well modernised through DST/UGC and University grants.
Other Facilities
There are 6 Research Labs and 2 Computer Labs in the Department of Physics.
PLACEMENT CELL
Although there is no placement cell at the departmental level, but as per the information generally received from the students almost all the students are well absorbed in teaching, research institutes and industries.
The faculty members of the Department help the students in placement in many research institutes through their academic contacts and recommendations. Further the students are regularly updated about the latest scope of the course.
