Physics -> Overview

Welcome to the Department of Physics at PESCE!

Established in the year 1962, our department boasts a rich legacy of imparting quality education and conducting successful research in applied science. Recently renovated with modern amenities, we are equipped to provide a stimulating learning environment for our students.

Our department offers the Applied Physics course, which is a unique hybrid program that integrates theory and practical aspects. Unlike conventional programs, we believe in inclusive learning, where practical knowledge is seamlessly integrated into the curriculum, ensuring that students gain hands-on experience alongside theoretical concepts.

Comprising highly qualified and dedicated faculty members, our department is driven by a passion for education and research. We currently have six faculty members, including two Professors and four Assistant Professors. Four of our faculty members hold doctorate degrees, while one is currently pursuing her Ph.D.

We are committed to nurturing the potential of our students and providing them with the highest quality of education. As a testament to our dedication, our students consistently achieve excellent results in both theory and practical examinations.

In addition to our fundamental course in Applied Physics for I/II - Semester, we offer Condensed Matter Physics as an open elective course for VI - Semester B.E. programs. This allows students to explore specialized topics and tailor their academic journey according to their interests.

We welcome you to explore the dynamic world of Applied Physics at PESCE and embark on a journey of discovery and innovation. Together, let's explore the limitless potential of physics and shape a brighter future.

For inquiries or further information, please feel free to reach out to our faculty.

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)
Program Outcomes (POs)
  • Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
  • Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
  • Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
  • Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
  • Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
  • The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
  • Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
  • Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
  • Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.
  • Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
  • Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one's own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
  • Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
