Colleges for Physics
Do you ever get unconscious, just literally, when you began to think of stars, planets & the infinitesimally extending universe or you ever try to define logic to anything you see around yourself. Why fan revolves as it does so? , or planets revolve around sun? & endless running silly questions like that, mind that you need to prove your talent at one of the finest physics institutions discussed further. Physics is an integral branch of science which mostly deals with answering questions how & why do most of the things happening in our surroundings occur? Physics started with a philosophical commitment to simplicity. Important things which constitute physics are mechanics & forces, electric current & magnetism, heat, power, work, study inside an atoms, electrons, protons etc. but the most interesting as well as herculean topic is the study of speed of light & universe being precisely ‘quantam physics’. As a great scientist said that from the tiniest of an atom to the largest of the universe everything is physics. Realizing this, a large number of institutes all over the world offer physics courses for teaching as well as research & development. Physics offers challenging, exciting, and productive careers. A physicist can become a lab supervisor, researcher, teacher, manager and the list is endless. Physics as a career covers many specialized and interesting fields like – acoustics, astronomy, astrophysics, medical physics. Some may work in hospitals and factories as well. For this one may pursue physics honors or masters. Following are the names of a few institutes in India which offer physics courses:
