There are colorful personalities emerging out of the department, who have not only

enriched the subject of physics, but also have a large number of publication in the form of

articles in Magazines/ News paper and books for popularization of physics-an important step

for diffusion of knowledge.

1.5.2 Research Achievements: As reflected in the CV of the respective faculties.

1.5.3 Research Project – Nil

1.5.4 Seminars / Conferences/ symposia

Seminars have been conducted regularly with the active participation of the students

and teachers. During the year about 10 numbers of seminars were conducted.Both the

4. Miss Preeti Das, Guest Faculty Dept. Attendance

1.8 Student Support

All efforts are being made to establish a cordial and useful relation between the

students and teachers. The proctorial/ remedial systems have been effectively pursued. Not

only the students are assessed, the feedback from students about teachers is also acted

upon effectively for improving quality of teaching. Students and teachers are actively

observing Ganesh and Saraswati Puja. Also picnics are arranged for recreation.

At present this department is proud of having dedicated teachers and sincere non-

gazetted staff.

It is hoped that this century-old department will move forward in the proper

direction, and it will be a center of excellence at the national level in the near future by

receiving more incentives and developing better infrastructure.
