The Physics Laboratory plays a vital role in strengthening conceptual understanding through hands-on experimental learning. It is designed to support undergraduate and postgraduate programmes by providing practical exposure to fundamental and advanced physics experiments. The laboratory encourages scientific thinking, accuracy in observation, and the application of theoretical principles.
The Physics Laboratory offers a well-structured set of experiments aligned with the university syllabus:
Undergraduate (B.Sc. Physics): 25–30 experiments covering
Mechanics
Properties of Matter
Heat and Thermodynamics
Optics
Electricity and Magnetism
Electronics
