DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS

HOD'S DESK

It gives me an immense pride and pleasure to lead the Department of Physics of Bharath Institution of Science and Technology. The aim of the Department is to teach the concepts of basic physics and knowledge of engineering physics for the first year B.Tech. students and thus providing a strong foundation and momentum for the rest of their undergraduate time period.

The inherent skills of our students are being well nurtured by highly qualified and hard working staff members in achieving goals & objectives of the Department. The department laboratory is equipped with various experimental setups giving the scope to the students having hands on experience individually, which will enhance the confidence of the students to solve the practical problems in Physics.

Apart from the regular curriculum, the Department strives to develop the students into intellectual prodigy. The department conducts various programs periodically under the departmental association such as interactive lectures, Faculty Development Programs/ seminars and conferences with the invited experts from Industry and academia. These events help students and staff members to obtain and upgrade the recent technologies in Science. In addition, our faculty members are actively engaged in research activities in various emerging fields such as nanomaterials, thin films, crystal growth, computational drug discovery, photocatalysis, supercapacitors and other energy storage devices.

We continue to play a leading role in our discipline, which leads us towards producing innovative and effective professional graduate community to the society.
