Department of Physics

About Department -

The Department of Physics was established in 1971 and offers a B. Sc. Program for students. The department has highly qualified and experienced teaching staff. The department has a spacious laboratory and dark room for optics experiments. The physics lab is well equipped with instruments like CRO, Hall Effect, Newton Ring Setup, etc. The department also having well sophisticated research instruments like Digital ultrasonic velocity meter, Muffle furnace, Vacuum Oven and Digital weighing balance etc. for carryout research work. The department has a library and staff room with Wi-Fi and internet connectivity. The Department has formed the Sir J. C. Bose Society to conduct various extracurricular/co-curricular activities such as field studies, educational tours, student seminars, science exhibitions, and guest lectures of eminent scientists, professors, and experts working in reputed institutions. A mentor-mentee scheme is implemented in the department in which teachers regularly interact with students and provide personal counselling, guidance, and solve their problems.

In addition to their teaching duties, faculty members are also actively engaged in research. The department has three recognized Ph.D. supervisor of RTM Nagpur University and under their able guidance four students are already registered. The department has successfully completed four minor research projects funded by UGC. A total of 92 research papers have been published in reputed national and international journals and also published 2 patents at the national level. Additionally, faculty members have presented their research findings at various national and international conferences. Furthermore, they have authored 12 text books for undergraduate level.
