Vision
- To build up its national reputation in Physics education and research and to become national leader in producing highly professional and motivated physicists.
Mission
To provide rigorous training in the scientific process and a firm scientific understanding of nature to foster critical thinking and to provide scientifically literate and liberally educated physicists. The primary functional aspects of our mission can be classified as:
- Preparing undergraduates and graduates for advanced studies and employment in education, research institutes and industry.
- Developing highly qualified physicists who can serve as major contributors to the scientific and technological literacy in theoretical and applied physics.
- Providing physics knowledge, experimental experience and training in analytical reasoning and critical thinking required as the basis for the students seeking advanced studies in physics.
- Polishing the expertise and competence in physics of our researchers/academic staff and to enable them to carry out advanced research in active areas of Physics as demanded by the 21st century.
Goals
The goal of the Physics major is to provide the student with a broad understanding of the physical principles of the universe, to help them develop critical thinking and quantitative reasoning skills, to empower them to think creatively and critically about scientific problems and experiments, and to provide training for students planning careers in physics and in the physical sciences broadly defined, including those whose interests lie in research, university or college teaching, industrial jobs, or other sectors of our society.
