University department. The department is unique in the entire Rohilkhand region
in the sense that it provides M.Sc. degree with specialization in Material
Science introducing students to the striking fields of Material Science i.e.
characterization of materials, crystal growth, Advanced Solid State Physics and
Nano-Technology. Department is in the process to develop some credible research
centers in the fields of computational physics and material simulation,
macromolecular physics and high energy physics.
