The Department of Physics, AMET was established in the academic year 2001-2002. Physics is an integral part of every scientific innovation and lays a strong foundation to future technology. We offerPostgraduate and Doctoral Programmes for highly motivated students who are interested in pursuing a career in Physics. Our curriculum is enriched to expose the students to fundamental and advanced coursesin Physics. We strive and make them competent in understanding and applying theoretical and practical knowledge in frontier areas or science and technology.

Presently the department has a team of ten faculty members with PhDs and Post-doctoral experience from reputed National and International Institutions. The Department research is funded by various government organizations such as DST, CSIR, DAE and Industries and has over 300 publications in National and International Journals.
