Department of Physics, Acharya Nagarjuna University, ever since its inception in the year 1967, is a pioneer in teaching and research. This Department has got the credit of founded and headed by Internationally reputed Professors like Prof. D. Premswarup and Prof. C.R.K. Murthy. Since then, the Department is being carefully cultivated academically by the subsequent eminent teaching staff members. At present the Department consists of Six teaching staff members. The Department is offering M. Sc. two year programme in Physics (with Condensed Matter Physics/ Materials Science as the specialization) with an in take of 44 students. In addition, M. Phil and Ph. D. courses are also being offered by the Department. The curriculum of M.Sc. course is designed by keeping in mind the syllabi of various National Universities CSIR, UGC, GATE and NEP-2020 to train up the students both in theoretical and experimental Physics. The M.Sc. curriculum consisting of latest topics in Condensed Mater Physics, Advanced Quantum Mechanics, Nano Materials, Glass Science, Liquid Crystals etc. The Department is well equipped with sophisticated instruments
