The
teachers give importance for introducing
the subject from the very basics to its
full depth with a view to creating interest
for the students in the topic and making
them appreciate the beauty of the subject.
The teachers collect feedback from students
and improve their mode of teaching. They
conduct special classes outside the regular
working hours and regular working days to
compensate for the hours lost due to various
reasons and are not ready for any compromise
on this.
Apart from conventional classroom lectures,
the learning is made more student participatory
particularly in M.Sc. level. The main theory
part is dealt in detail by the teacher and
applications, qualitative details, problems
etc. are given either as assignments or
for seminar presentation by the students.
The OHP and power point presentation facility
are available to the students and teachers.
The Department arranges Open House Program
for all the B.Sc. Classes after the First
Internal evaluation test in September, where
parents, teachers and students come together
and review the performance of the students
and discuss what each can do so that the
student utilizes his/her talents in the
best way. The Dept. makes it sure that all
parents come and meet the teachers with
their wards. Such programmes definitely
help to improve the performance of the students
and is very useful to make them more dutiful
and diligent.
Now
the thrust of the Dept is
The
Dept. plans to establish necessary facilities
for research in Preparationand Characterization
of Thin Films.

Internal
assessment in practical shall be based
on a continuous evaluation of performance
in doing experiments. Experimental
skill, understanding of the principle,
ability for data analysis feel for accuracy.
presentation, punctuality etc; should
be monitored while doing every experiment,
A record should be maintained by he
teacher giving grade mark for each experiment.
The specified percentage of the average
of these will be the final mark. The

The
valuation of practical record will be
internal. The examination in practicals
will be conducted by an external examiner
and internal examiner./ The project
will also be evaluated by them. While
evaluating the project credit must be
given to innovative ideas and investigative
projects. The projects shall be assigned
to the students during the first year
itself. All internal assessments shall
be completed before the practical examination
and the total marks may be published.
Grievances if any, shall be heard and
rectified by a committee constituted
specifically for this purpose.

Library
Facility
The
Dept has a library, named after
late Prof. T.B. Thomas, the chief
mentor of the Department. Some
of the bookshelves are donated
by Mrs.T.B.Thomas. The books for
the newly started B.Sc. Courses
and those purchased in 1970’s
under the COSIP Programme are
kept in this Library whereas the
books purchased using UGC assistance
are kept in the Central Library.
The Dept. Library possesses a
good collection of back volumes
of journals, periodicals in Physics
and Electronics and also books
donated by retired staff and old
students. The students use this
Library with the help of the respective
class teachers since there is
no Librarian. There are a total
of about 9000 books of the subject
in the two libraries.

instituted by the Department
in honour of the retired teachers,
with the help of contributions
from staff and old students.
Recently, Dr. G. Varghese,
Dept. of Physics, Memorial University
of Newfoundland ( alumnus
of the Dept) has given an
amount of Rs. 1 lakh to institute
an Endowment in the name of
Dr. P.M.Mathai (retired Principal
and Prof. In Physics of the
College) for giving scholarships
to M.Sc. students .
