Salient Features:
The academic programme of this faculty has been designed to meet the requirement of the latest technological developments and envisages to become state-of-the-art department with high quality education and cutting edge interdisciplinary research in science.
The novelty of this programme lies in its interdisciplinary approach, strong flavour of engineering, exposure to disciplines in the Basic Sciences.
The Faculty of Basic Science has a special mission to foster collaborative, interdisciplinary research in different areas of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics that will address the future needs of the society.
Basic Science and Researches are recognized as the single most important tool in creating a pool of thinkers and world leaders in Science and Technology. In India, basic science and research has gained popularity and relevance in higher education through various governmental initiatives like KVPY, NTSE, and setting up of institutions like IISER, NPL, ISRO, TIFR, Solar Power Plants, Nuclear Power Plants etc.
Currently, Faculty of basic Science offers Bachelors, Masters, and Ph.D. programmes in the domain of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.

Physics labs
Physics labs provide the opportunities to the students to learn the concepts of physics by performing experiments. Three basic Labs for different courses Physics Lab-I and Physics Lab-II are being offered to undergraduate students and one lab for postgraduate students. The experiments were chosen cover the wide spectrum of Physics viz wave optics, electricity & magnetism, radiations, dielectrics, magnetic materials, semiconductors, optical fibres, laser, properties of matter, thermodynamics, electronics, spectroscopy etc.

Hence, we focus on building the foundations of programming so that every student can become a successful entrepreneur of tomorrow. To do so, we encourage our students to go beyond the classroom learning, participate in scientific events explore the real-life problems faced by people in the neighbourhood as well as from other corners of the world. For this we believe that student should not just focus on learning the theories, building applications from what has been learnt but be a good human being.
