About the Department
The Physics department is well equipped with all types of modern teaching facilities and well maintained laboratory apparatuses. The department is also famous for using latest teaching by demonstration. Research activities are also being performed by the faculty members. More than 2 dozen research papers of the faculty members have been published in the various international journals of high repute in the last 3 years.
Presently the department of Physics is running B.Sc. Course with three streams i.e. B.Sc. (Physics, Chemistry, Maths), B.Sc. (Physics, Statistics, Maths) and B.Sc. (Physics, Computer Science, Maths).
Brief Histoy
The Physics department in Shia P.G. College was established in 1947 under the headship of Dr.S.N.Singh and first batch of B.Sc. Ist year (PCM) got admitted. Later on Dr. R.C. Srivastava & Dr.T.P.Pandaya both joined Deptt. of Physics Lucknow University Lucknow, gave their kind services to the department.Next Dr.R.C.Pandey gave the servicers as Head. In 1966 Dr. S.I. Ahmad who also worked as College Principal and authored several books in Physics became the head of the deptt & continued till 2000. Then Dr.H.S. Singh became the next head & worked till year 2009. After Dr. Singh Dr. S.Ali Kausar Rizvi became the next Head and he is serving as HoD till date.
Before the year 1989 the B.Sc. Course was of duration 2-years. In 1989 B.SC III year was introduced for the first time.
Vision
To build a foundation for the development of the physics department by igniting and promoting enthusiasm, interests and passion, in the study of physics and to excel in quality based physics education with novel ideas and to develop a scientific temper in the students and enabling them to take challenges to solve the problem of the society.
Mission
To impart quality education both in theoretical as well as experimental physics with special emphasis on “learning by doing” and to awaken the young minds and discover their talents both in theory and in practical physics, through dedication to teach, commitment towards students and innovative instructional methods.
Objective
Department of Physics has deep wish to start M.Sc. Physics and Ph.D. courses along with some professional certificate courses and in this context preparations has been started.
