About Us
Department of Physics, Mohanlal Sukhadia University, Udaipur has an unparalleled record of 40 years of excellence in teaching and research. The department offers postgraduate and undergraduate courses in Physics to train physicists at different levels. Students from the department are able to take up positions at educational and research institutions as well as in industry. The department also offers doctoral programme in Physics, leading to Ph.D degree. This allows students interested in Physics to engage in relevant research while acquiring advanced academic training in physics.
The major areas of research conducted in the department include Atomic and nuclear Physics, Solid State Physics, Ionospheric and Atmospheric Physics, Material Science and Astrophysics. The department has been identified by University Grants Commission (UGC) under DSA programme and is supported under DRS Phases- I to IV with thrust areas as Hyperfine Interactions, Theoretical Physics and Ionospheric and Atmospheric Physics. The Department was also covered and supported by UGC COSIST programme and DST-FIST programme. In addition to the departmental support, faculty members of the department are getting research support under research projects from Central agencies like DST, DRDO, ISRO, etc. Faculty members also collaborate with other universities and institutions in the country as well as outside.
Department of Physics is also playing a vital role in promoting teaching and research in interdisciplinary areas of Physics, Electronics, Information Technology, Life sciences and Geology. The M.Sc.(Electronics) and M.Sc.(Information Technology) courses are offered by the department mainly to strengthen research in the interdisciplinary area of Physics, Communication and Computational Sciences. Studies of Minerals from Aravali region, X-ray diffraction studies in biological samples, synthesis of organic and inorganic crystals and studies of environmental samples are also undertaken by the department to promote interface of Physics with Geological, Biological, Chemical and Environmental sciences.
The Department of Physics is actively involved in the development of infrastructure for the campus. The UGC IMF facilities, UGC Infonet Facilities, Computer Centre, computerization and communication facilities for the campus, SUNET, the campus network of the University, Internet and Intranet facilities etc. are result of the combined effort and team work of the faculty members of the department.
