Department of Physical Sciences / B.Sc. Computer Science, Physics
The B.Sc. (Physics with Computer Science) programme is an interdisciplinary degree that integrates the principles of physical sciences with the computational skills essential for modern scientific and technological innovation. The curriculum provides a balanced foundation in classical and modern physics alongside core computer science competencies such as programming, data structures, operating systems, database management, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.
Students gain analytical thinking, problem-solving ability, experimental skills, and hands-on experience using modern computational tools to model physical systems, analyse data, and develop software solutions. The programme prepares graduates for research, industry, and emerging technology domains where physics and computing converge. The B.Sc. is a three-year degree programme. However, as per the provisions of the new National Education Policy (NEP 2020), a student may continue into the fourth year and earn a B.Sc. Honours degree.
