Physics Department is among the first few departments set up at the beginning of the College. The entire faculty is well qualified and research oriented. The department has a reputation, as it has attracted a large number of student ’s. The good strength and interest of the student in the subject encouraged us to start Post Graduate course in Physics with Electronics specialization.
The department has well-furnished laboratories equipped with a different instrument such as Cathode Ray Oscilloscope (CRO), lamp and scale arrangement, spectrometer, audio frequency generators etc. The separate darkroom is available.
