Introduction

The aim of the BS Physics program is to equip students with essential skills necessary for professional work as a physicist and is the first step to graduate work in physics.

This degree can lead to specialization in various other fields interconnected with physics such as medical physics, solid-state physics, and nuclear physics among others. Over the course of four years, students learn new ways and techniques to solve problems and learn to predict the behavior of various systems.

They also understand the physical laws that govern the universe and eventually are able to contribute towards answering the unanswered questions.

Duration
Enter Requirements

12 Years of Education, intermediate or equivalent with Physics and Mathematics, with minimum 45% marks, from an accredited institution. Pre-medical students may also be admitted. An additional Mathematics course will be offered to premedical students in 1st semester.
