PHILOSOPHY AND MAJOR AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMME

The programme of the Department of Industrial Physics is designed to:

• Provide the student with an understanding of tie principles governing the behaviour of the physical universe, and
• Develop in the student an appreciation of the scientific method and its application to the technological problems of today. Thus the department aims at developing the human resource into a form that can be of service to the public and to satisfy the needs aid aspirations of the society from which the students are drawn. In this regard the degree programme of the Industrial Physics Department must be applied in nature and resultoriented. The emphasis is therefore, on appropriate technology in the context of a university education.

However, the applied nature of the programme must not be overstretched at the expense of established requirements in the education of a physics. To this end we identify two directions which the degree structure aims at achieving viz

• The vertical direction which emphasizes the global motivation and a sound physics background linking the student with the outside world of high technology. This will take the students through the classical, statistical quantum mechanical to the atomic and subatomic (nuclear) world and the universe; and
• The horizontal direction emphasizing the local motivation and applied nature of the programme. Students are here encouraged to work practically with local materials paying attention to instrumentation, solid state devices and spreading out to telecommunication application and energy related problems of our environment.
