Department Of Physic
Welcome to the Department of Physics at DIBNS. We started our journey in the year of 2015. Over the last 8 years, the department is growing with time with its developing well-equipped laboratories for learning through experiment. We have a Post-Graduate and Under graduate Programme in Physics. The curriculum of UG &PG is based upon Curriculum and Credit Framework of NEP 2020 and provides the in-depth study of the subject and the related areas. The Physics programme is the combination of courses such as Major core courses (MCC), Minor Courses (MC), Multidisciplinary courses (MDC), Ability Enhancement Courses (AECs), Skill Enhancement Courses (SECs), and Value-Added Courses (VACs). Our department maintains active research for carrying out collaborative and multidisciplinary research. Faculty members have excellent academic credentials and are highly regarded. Our department offers Science based outreach programme for various schools in the states. Besides this, the department offers large number of science-based activities for providing wide spectrum of options to the students to pursue their interest. The Department is also recognized as a NPTEL Local Chapter from IIT Madras. “PUNARVASU” the astronomy club of the department regularly organizes various outreach programmes and conduct regular observation sessions and imparting a spirit of curiosity and exploration among the students. Our department always strive to cultivate a vibrant academic community dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge and the advancement of physics.

VISION
Building up an environment in the department by encouraging the development of educational physics by participating in the development of curriculum, developing methodology physics education and lifelong learning programs.
mISSION
Our aim is to accelerate science knowledge within society by promoting scientific literacy and meeting the scientific needs of the community and prepare graduate with degree of efficiency, as well as a good human being.
cORE VALUE
- Quest of Knowledge: our commitment to advancing our understanding of the fundamental principles of nature through our continuous learning, experimentation, and exploration approach.
- Collaboration and supportive: Promoting a supportive and inclusive environment where our faculty, students, and staff work together collaboratively, respecting diverse perspectives and leveraging collective expertise to achieve common goals of teaching and learning
- Communication and Outreach: Engaging with the learners and community to share our passion for physics, communicate the relevance and impact of our academic exercises, and inspire the next generation of scientists and informed citizen
BEST PRACTICES
Physics Department believes that Education should be holistic and quality-focused. Development of the scientific temper is our fundamental duty and we are committed to the cause of making learning a simulative, experimental and Exploratory process.
“PUNARVASU” a student-led Astronomy club of our department exemplifies best practices in astronomy education and outreach. “PUNARVASU” serves as a hub for students passionate about exploring the cosmos, offering a range of activities that bridge theoretical knowledge with practical experience. Regular stargazing sessions, expert-led workshops, and hands-on projects allow members to deepen their understanding of astronomical phenomena. We regularly conduct lectures and discussions featuring renowned astronomers and astrophysicists. We also deeply committed in harnessing the potential of Astro tourism and sustainable development in rural areas of Uttarakhand and conducts various community engagement outreach programme.
The Department is very conscious of its role in communicating the importance and excitement of contemporary physics and its cognate disciplines to young generation and the general public. One of the key roles of the Educational Outreach programme of department is to stimulate interest and encourage wider participation in physics amongst school going students. In support of these initiatives, the UG & PG students contribute the programme and run the Education Outreach activities. In these activities our students engaged themselves with school going children and assist them in various academic and scholastic activities from time to time.
