Physics

By studying Physics, you will gain problem-solving, analytical, and practical skills that prepare you for various career paths in science, engineering, research, and beyond. You will develop critical thinking to analyze natural phenomena and apply theoretical principles to real-world applications.

Overview

Physics is the study of matter, energy, and their interactions. At Presidency PU College, you will explore concepts like mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and modern physics. Experiments conducted in our well-equipped labs will help you connect theoretical knowledge with practical applications.
One day in class, you may calculate the trajectory of a projectile or explore the laws of thermodynamics. The next day, you’ll perform an experiment to verify the resistance of a wire or the refraction of light through a prism.

Career Opportunities

PU Physics forms the foundation for careers in engineering, medicine, astrophysics, data science, robotics, and renewable energy. It prepares you for exams like JEE, NEET, and CET. Alumni of Presidency have excelled in these fields, showcasing their expertise as scientists, aeronautical engineers, research analysts, and more.
