The goal and objective of the Department was to undertake post graduate teaching and impart research training to students who opt for advanced studies in Physics. The Department of Physics has hitherto continuously maintained a creditable record of post graduate teaching and research in Physics.
The Department conducts teaching programmes leading to M.Sc and M.Phil degrees and a research programme leading to Ph.D. The students to the various courses are selected by separate nationwide admission tests.

The teaching is imparted by well trained teachers who have gained reputation in their fields. Most of the teachers have experience of working in other Indian and foreign laboratories and has obtained substantial knowledge in the modern developments in physical sciences. The project work which is a part of the M.Sc and M.Phil programme contain new findings which are supervised by these well trained teachers of the Department.
