3. Creating a Foundation SCHOOL OF PHYSICS & MATERIALS SCIENCE AND STRENGTHENING THE BASE OF EVERY TECHNOLOGY Mission Physics is about the curiosity to explore how and why the objects around us behave the way they do. Discoveries in physics have been fundamental to the numerous technological advances we enjoy today. They are shaping our future. Physics is both exciting and challenging. If you are inquiring and playful, this is the feld you should study. The rewards include the satisfaction of better understanding of the objects - both living and lifeless - around us and the development of various skills that only a few people possess. Employers are on the lookout for such human resources. • Increasing research output through multi-interdisciplinary research areas as well as involving experts from other departments/institutions/industries. • Creation of Excellence Centre for development of advanced materials for technological purposes. • Develop manpower that will contribute to academic, scientifc, and industrial development of the country. Vision • To develop our academic and research programs as per the national needs competitive with global development.

4. M.SC. PROGRAMME PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS Confluence of Theoretical and Experimental Science The faculty members afliated with the School of Physics and Materials Science (SPMS) have expertise in theoretical nuclear science, particle physics, computational physics, nonlinear dynamics as well as experimental materials science, nano-medicine, magnetism, functional nanostructures, photovoltaics and experimental nuclear physics. SPMS houses cutting-edge experimental and high performance computational facilities. Faculty members have a synergetic approach towards their academic and research endeavors. SPMS has an established reputation of delivering interdisciplinary technology with strong theoretical back up. • One full semester dedicated to thesis work • Publication of research papers in international journals • Internship in reputed organizations like TIFR, IISc, IITs, IISER, CSIO, etc. • Rigorous syllabus according to GATE/NET • Merit fellowships to meritorious students TEACHING HIGHLIGHTS Academic Programs • Experienced and dynamic faculty • HI-TECH academic, computing & research infrastructure • State of the Art Library • Campus placement assistance • Startup support & entrepreneurship development CAMPUS HIGHLIGHTS M.Sc. (Physics) Ph.D. • World class sports and extra-curricular facilities • Hostel accommodation with modern facilities Research-based Learning Experimental work forms an important aspect of learning. The SPMS provides training in problem solving, instrumentation and measurement techniques as well as analysis. We also ensure that all the students are exposed to the world of measurements at an early stage. Most of the courses have a lab component and practical work is compulsory for all programs. Students spend a large chunk of their learning time on hands-on experiments. The SPMS has well-maintained teaching laboratories that cater to the curiosity of the students. All PG students are involved doing hands-on research. The UG students are also exposed to both formal and informal research-based learning. Ph.D. PROGRAMME Broad Research Areas • Condensed Matter Physics (Theory and Experiment) • Nuclear and High Energy Physics (Theory and Experiment) • Non-linear Dynamics (Theory and Computational) • Computational Soft Matter Physics • Nanomedicine For further details please contact: hspms@thapar.edu and http://spms.thapar.edu UG (B.E.)
