Applied Physics
Physics is everywhere; whether it's health, space exploration, sound, light, major construction projects, sports, art projects, safety, road construction, vehicles, or solar cells. Do you want to combine your interest in physics with the latest developments and applications in technology? Are you inquisitive and curious? Then Applied Physics is the right study for you.
In Applied Physics, you will explore many physical themes. You will also learn to collaborate, plan, create reports, present, and conduct research. In the first year, you will work on themes through practicals and courses such as mathematics, optics, mechanics, thermodynamics, measurement techniques, atomic & nuclear physics, electronics, electricity, and programming. The second year also focuses on themes and projects with subjects like smart materials, quantum mechanics, transport physics, thermodynamics, and heat and mass transfer. In the third year, you will do an internship, and in the fourth year, you will complete your studies and follow a minor.
