    The Proposed New Course in Physics is based on Model curriculum of the University Grant Commission for under graduate classes are redesigned in accordance with new education policy.

Objectives :

1.    To  update course contents by introductory recent development in Physics to ensure the students of 
       this country do not have any academic disadvantages over their counter part's overseas.

2.    To meet the growing demands of specialization and advanced courses in applied and pure science.

3.    To help the colleges to update and modernize their laboratories.

 

    This syllabus is to be completed by assigning 15 periods of 55 minutes each (3 periods per paper) and 16 periods for practicals per batch per week (4 periods per practical).

 

    The number of students in a practical batch should not exceed fifteen (15).

PATTERN OF EXAMINATION

    There will be five courses in theory and four practicals in the university examination. The pattern will be as follows :

 

  DURATION  MARKS 
    EXTERNAL INTERNAL
Theory (Written)
