The Department proposes to carry out research in the areas of Condensed Matter Physics and High Energy Physics. In condensed matter Physics, magnetism, semiconductors and DFT methods for band structure studies are some of the areas of interest. Some of the areas of interest in High Energy Physics are B Physics, Neutrino Physics and Astro-particle Physics, Collider Phenomenology, Perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics and String Theory. The Department is currently offering Ph.D (Physics) in the areas mentioned above.
The Department has an excellent teaching laboratory for the B.Tech. and M.Sc. Students, with advanced experiments.
