About Department

The Department of Physics at PCBAS, established in 2013, has developed a strong tradition of academic excellence and research innovation. The department offers a broad spectrum of programs, including undergraduate (B.Sc. / B.Sc. Hons.), postgraduate (M.Sc.), and Ph.D. programs in diverse areas of experimental and theoretical Physics.

  1. Undergraduate Programs: Six- and eight-semester B.Sc. / B.Sc. (Hons.) with an intake capacity of 60 students.
  2. Postgraduate Programs: Four-semester M.Sc. in Physics with an intake capacity of 30 students.
  3. Doctoral Programs: Research opportunities in frontier areas of Physics under the Ph.D. program.

The department has implemented the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and embraces the interdisciplinary and flexible learning framework envisioned by NEP-2020, allowing students to pursue holistic education with opportunities for research integration and skill development.

Faculty members are engaged in national-level collaborations and maintain strong research linkages with premier institutions such as TIFR Mumbai, BARC Mumbai, and IUCAA Pune. The department also boasts a well-resourced library with a wide range of reference books and journals, supporting both academic and research pursuits.

Research activities within the department span across major thrust areas of Physics, including:

  1. Nuclear Physics
  2. High Energy Physics
  3. Atomic & Molecular Physics
  4. Condensed Matter Physics
  5. Astronomy &Astrophysics

The Department’s continuous pursuit of academic distinction has been duly recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi. In alignment with NEP-2020, the department remains committed to nurturing scientific temper, advancing research, and preparing graduates for leadership roles in academia, industry, and society.

Future Directions

Looking ahead, the Department of Physics is committed to strengthening its role as a hub for advanced learning and research. In alignment with NEP-2020, the department seeks to:

  1. Establish interdisciplinary research centres addressing emerging areas such as quantum technologies, renewable energy, and computational physics.
  2. Develop skill-enhancement and value-added courses to equip students with competencies relevant to industry, academia, and entrepreneurship.
  3. Expand opportunities for international collaborations and student exchange programs to promote global exposure.
  4. Enhance infrastructure and laboratory facilities to support experimental innovation and hands-on learning.
  5. Promote outreach and extension activities to engage with schools, communities, and industry, thereby fostering scientific temper and societal impact.

Through these initiatives, the department aims to nurture the next generation of physicists who will contribute to scientific progress, national development, and the global knowledge economy.
