Department of Physics
OVERVIEW
The Department of Physics at Manipal University Jaipur comes under the umbrella of the School of Basic Sciences. The department was established after the inception of the university in 2011 with a vision to provide excellence in higher education in physics and to pursue research in state-of-the-art areas of pure, applied, and interdisciplinary science. Currently, there are 13 faculty members who are highly qualified and hail from the globally recognized best institutions with rich experience in teaching and have made significant contributions to their respective areas of research. The department also hosts several research projects sponsored by SERB, DST, UGC, DAE, and DST Rajasthan.
VISION
The Physics department has two-fold vision: one is to foster cutting-edge research that broadens the boundaries of science and technology and the other to provide students with an outstanding educational experience that helps them develop strong analytical, quantitative, and problem-solving skills as well as a deep understanding of the role physics in technological innovations.
MISSION
- To foster curiosity and excitement about the physical world.
- To provide students with rigorous and comprehensive courses of Physics that allow them to perform at a high level.
- To inculcate the culture of research among undergraduate and masters students, through which they can contribute to the scientific enterprise.
- To maintain a research environment, in which key scientific and technical innovation are generated.

Material Science Laboratory
A Material Science Laboratory is a crucial component of any scientific research and development environment, as it plays a central role in understanding the properties, structure, and behavior of various materials. Material science laboratories are essential for researchers, engineers, and scientists in a wide range of fields, including metallurgy, electronics, nanotechnology, and more. It serves as a crucial hub for advancing our understanding of materials and their role in modern technology and industry.
Thin Film Deposition Laboratory
B. Tech EP Laboratory
The lab is well equipped with the optics, quantum and solid state physics experiments that help B.tech students to realize physics experimentally.
BSc/MSc-Laboratory
"The BSc/MSc Physics laboratory at Manipal University Jaipur is a well-equipped facility designed to facilitate hands-on learning and experimental exploration in the field of physics. It provides students with practical exposure to fundamental concepts and phenomena across various branches of physics.
Objectives:
- Experimental Exploration: The lab aims to provide students with opportunities to perform a wide range of experiments, covering topics like mechanics, optics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and modern physics.
- Skill Development: Through hands-on activities, students develop essential laboratory skills such as data collection, analysis, and interpretation. They also become proficient in the use of specialized laboratory equipment.

Functional Ceramic & Smart Material Lab (FCSM)
The FCSM lab equipped with core Metallurgical synthesis of materials. Pure and composites materials could be developed by solid state reaction and sol-gel technique in lab. most importantly the magnetoresistance set-up to support the ferroelectric material studies for Energy harvesting devices.
FROM THE
STUDENT THOUGHTS
Manipal University Jaipur is a place where your voice is heard and your opinion counts. My knowledge and self-confidence have been boosted so much after coming here. The University provides exposure and teachers are very cooperative. The support from teachers had really helped not only for academic work but also for competitive examination and university applications.
Mr.Vishal JoshiDepartment of Physics
The Bsc physics program at MUJ has stood out for its great course structure that covers undergraduate level physics in a much more complete way than other colleges and includes several courses such as solid State physics and statistical mechanics usually omitted by some colleges. Furthermore it has discipline specific courses such as fusion energy and low temperature physics which are quite interesting.
Mr.JAY JAGDISH JAINDepartment of Physics
Be it condensed matter physics or solid-state physics, the state of the art analytic and instrumentational facilities provides a skilful and an enriching display of contingent and relevant fields and an environment adequate for anyone having the zeal to venture into scientific research; piloted by the irreplaceable and inspiring head of department Dr Ashima Bagaria, the department of physics provides for few of the most experienced and visionary professors at the university. The curriculum is aptly structured to cater to practical as well as theoretical skills required for higher education by being inclusive of semester projects and seminars alongside usual modules; one's stay at Manipal University is determined by what one makes of it through their own passion and abilities.
