DEPARTMENTAL PROFILE OF PURE & APPLIED PHYSICS

Department at a Glance

Department of Pure and Applied Physics, one of the premier departments of University, was established in 1995. Since its inception, it has been actively involved in teaching and research activities. The department has grown by itself and emerged as the leader of the science education in this region of central India.

The department is having 11 teaching faculty, including two professors. The image of any teaching institute is framed through the quality of its faculty, the department is proud to have highly qualified and acclaimed faculty members. The diversity of the research areas of our faculty makes this department unique in itself. The department offers teaching and research programs in Experimental & Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics, Experimental Materials Science, Experimental Nuclear Physics, Spectroscopy and Plasma Physics.

The department offers wide ranging courses, such as 5 year integrated UG/PG program in Physics & Electronics, two years M. Sc. in Physics & Electronics, integrated M. Phil. / Ph. D. (Physics). New specializations Nuclear Physics and Laser Science are going to be offered in coming sessions at Masters level along with the presently offered Material Science. Two M. Tech. level courses in Nuclear Technology and Nano - Science and Technology will be started in the coming sessions.

Department is proud to share the information about the lab facilities offered to the both UG/PG students. Department is having well equipped laboratories for general physics, mechanics, heat and thermodynamics, optics, electronics, and computational techniques. Advanced material characterization facilities such as, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy, Fourier Transform – Infrared spectroscopy, UV – Vis spectrophotometer, and X – ray diffractometer are available for the M. Sc. students & research scholars of the department as central facility. Department has its own library which provides rich resources for both students and researchers.

Department has taken a bold initiative under the leadership of honorable vice chancellor, Dr. Lakshman Chaturvedi, to establish a 3 MV high current pelletron accelerator facility. This facility will make us to stand in the national science picture as one of the emerging research department of the country. The coming up facility will provide opportunities to carry out interdisciplinary research work in various branches of science.

The department is having dynamic academic activity by coordinating regular seminars of eminent science personalities, workshops, and symposia which provide excellent opportunities particularly to the UG/PG students of the department.

The department is having its own training and placement cell, which trains students for national level entrance examinations, looks after their placement at various research institutes and industry. Students from the department are encouraged to appear in national level examinations like, NET, GATE, JEST etc.

Department is striving very hard to improve the quality of Physics education to stand as one of the leading science education centers in the country. We express our deep desire to work with the new students to make their lives brighter.
