The Department of Physics came into existence in June 1987. The Department offers postgraduate programmes and conducts research in frontier areas of Physics and Material Science. The Department has been recognized for special funding by DST under the Fund for Improvement of Science and Technology Infrastructure (FIST-Level II) and also UGC-SAP DRS-II Programmes. The faculty members have obtained major research grants exceeding Rs 25 crores from different funding agencies such as DST, AICTE, UGC, IFCPAR, NBHM, DRDO, DAE, INSA, CSIR and NAB. The research activities have resulted in publication of more than 800 research papers in peer-reviewed journals including 9 patents. The members of the faculty are accorded with several national and international awards, fellow of the national academies, members in the national and international scientific advisory committees, referees of many
