Graduate Program

M.Phil Physics

Introduction

The Department of Physics offers a degree in M. Phil Physics to provide a broad background in
theoretical, experimental and applied physics fields with a prime emphasis on technology. It serves
to provide training for both the students interested in academics career and for those who want to
work as an active researcher/scientist in Physics. The M. Phil Physics program offers opportunities
to pursue a wide range of experimental and theoretical interests. Major foci of research include
theoretical and experimental Quantum Optics, Semiconductors, Applied Physics and Electronics,
High Energy Physics, Plasma Physics and Computational Physics. The M. Phil (Physics) program
of study includes training in theoretical methods and modelling, current issues and problems in
semiconductors physics and training in applied physics as well. It also covers topics that focus on
the electronics field for device fabrication. This widened and intensive study of diversified fields
of physics is expected to cater to the needs of not only aspiring physicist but also female scholars
from other fields wishing to expand their expertise through physicist eyes. Designed to develop
and inculcate the scientific understanding in attending students, the program includes a thorough
study of the subject’s classical and contemporary texts as well as practicums and discussions on
key questions of methodological relevance. Through these options, students apply the physics
theories and methods learnt on the core modules to particular substantive themes and topics.
This program of advance and through study enables students to creatively grapple with questions
ranging from the basic physics and the role of modern aspects. The program aims to work with
students to address physics issues critical to contemporary All M. Phil students are required to
undertake fieldwork in order to write a dissertation that integrates physical perspective in an
original way.

Objective

  • The program aspires to
    • To equip the students with thorough apprehension of Physics Courses.
    • To impart students theoretical, experimental and applied concepts of Advance Physics
    • To give students the opportunity to acquire or develop skills and expertise relevant to their research
    interests.
    • To prepare talented, skilful, professional researchers who can perform in various aspects of daily
    life and practical field.

Mission

Department of Physics aims to educate women the threshold of research in Physics which can lead
to subject specialism and bring excellence in diverse arenas of life.

Eligibility Criteria

M. Sc., / BS (4-years) degree or its equivalent in Physics or electronics or material science with
minimum of 60 % cumulative scores. GAT or University Test/Interview.
