The department of Physics is fully equipped with basic Engineering Physics Laboratory. The physics lab also has some advanced equipments like Foucault pendulum to show rotation of earth. It also has virtual lab facilities with high speed internet connection to view simulation of physical instruments and access remotely. Workshop also available to provide platform for enthused in making physics projects. The lab has 30 students capacity per batch. Two faculties per batch guide the students for personal attention. Students perform their experiment in groups of four students each and analyze their results. Supporting materials like lab manuals, graphs, charts and posters etc used to nurture and inculcate the students.
