Physics lab: 05

The College understands the need for a state of the art laboratory for physics with updated and calibrated equipment for inquisitive students who are willing to create new collective knowledge and foster the next generation of scientific leaders. The physics labs are well equipped with apparatus such as to help students take part in various experiments related to the subject.

The Department considers practical work as a very important part of the curriculum. The lab exercises are setup to allow you to gather data, analyze the data using the principles of the assigned topic, to obtain quantified results, and then for you to evaluate the results to determine if the principles are sound. It is our hope that these labs will aid you to gain a better understanding of the covered material.

The Physics Laboratory aim to train students in laboratory skills such as:

· Assembling and operating apparatus

· Following and recording experimental procedures

· Taking and interpreting data

· Determination of experimental uncertainties

· Presenting the results of an experiment in a written report.

The Physics labs cater to students of Physics (Hons), Chemistry (Hons), Mathematics (Hons), B.Sc. Non Medical, M.Sc. Physics.
