Learn more about BS Physics

The undergraduate physics program in USKT offers a variety of courses and encourages faculty-student interaction. The Department is growing rapidly in strengthening the ongoing program by establishing state-of-the-art labs and qualified faculty having rich and diversified exposure of National /International Universities. The opportunity to work closely with a faculty member and to get first-hand research experience is especially helpful in making post-graduate career decisions. Our students are strongly encouraged to broaden their scientific study through research opportunities outside the campus. The quality and variety of programs in the newly established lab are invaluable in encouraging students’ scientific interest. Some of the interesting phenomena of physics have been shown below for the exposure of students.

They also have an opportunity to apply theoretical foundation in a real-world setting.
