Welcome to the Department of Physics and Materials Sciences!
As the head of the department, it gives me great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all our website visitors.
Our department has a rich and fruitful history of academic excellence in education and research. It was established with the foundation of the university, then faced many changes and challenges but through resilience and determination, we have endured and aiming to bloom again and continue growing.
At our department, we are committed to excel in both education and research, and foster a dynamic academic community where curiosity, discovery, innovation and collaboration thrive. We offer programs designed to have the next generation of physicists and materials scientists, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to cater the academic interests and career aspirations.
Our undergraduate program, the Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Physics, equips students with a solid foundation in the fundamental principles of physics while encouraging exploration and critical thinking. Through hands-on experiments and theoretical studies, students are prepared for diverse career paths or further study in graduate programs.
For those interested in exploring and researching in the fascinating world of materials science, our Master of Science (MSc) in Materials Science program offers advanced studies of the structure, properties, and applications of materials and provides research opportunities in the field. Additionally, we offer a specialized Graduate Certificate in Corrosion, addressing the needs in industries where degradation of materials is a significant challenge.
Whether you are a prospective student, a curious researcher, or a professional seeking to expand your expertise, we welcome you and invite you to explore our website to know more about us. If you have any queries, please contact us at
