Essential Elements of the Syllabus
Title : Syllabus for the B.Sc. Course in Physics ( from academic year 2017 -18) for
Semester III & IV
Course Code :USPH
Preamble :
This is a revised part of the undergraduate programme (Six Semesters) in
Physics, to b e taught in Semester III & IV from the academic year 2017 -18
onwards .
Developing Curriculum that is progressive and purposeful to create positive
improvement in the education system is the logic beh ind this revision.
Out of the three courses in each Semester, two courses are devoted to core
Physics, catering to Mechanics , Thermodynamics, Optics , Electrodynamics,
Quantum Mechanics, Mathematical Physics and Digital and Analog Electronics.
These have been tailored to fit in with the existing FYBSc syllabus (Sem I and
Sem II) in terms of continuity and to ensure delivery of quality content to the
learner.
The s cience of Physics has diversified immensely in recent times and
numerous new fields in Physic s, such as Biophysics, Geo -Physics, Radio -Physics,
Physics of metals and ma terials, etc. have come into existence.The fundamentals
and the ge nerality of many principles of P hysics are common to all these
specialized diverse fields. Most problems in applied areas have been discussed
Page 2
intensely in academic conferences and journals, but have not found their place in
curricula or in text books.
The third course in each semester of fers interdisciplinary application - oriented
topics .It will be offered as a choice to all learner sacross various combinations .
This course will seek to fo ster a spirit of multidisciplinary approach in learning.
The 'practical' component in the applied co urse will be seen as a
combination of laboratory session s , a visit to a Research Institute/Industry, mini
project, an assignment on a relevant topic etc.
For the vari ous units, experts will guide as 'Resource Persons ' and their
laboratories/ departments could serve as Resource C enters . Facul ty
members/Teachers can avail of their expertise to train themselves in the delivery of
these courses when ever required.
Objective :
Upon completion of the course , students should have acquired the following
knowledge and skills:
1. a thorough quantitative and conceptual understanding of the core areas of
physics, including mechanics, , thermodynamics, quantum mechanics,
electronics at a level compatible with graduate programs in physics at peer
institutions.
2. the ability to analyze and interpret quantitative results, both in the core areas of
physics and interdisciplinary areas.
3. the ability to use contemporary experimental apparatu s and analysis tools to
acquire, analyze and interpret scientific data.
4. the ability to apply the principles of physics to solve new and unfamiliar
problems.
5. the ability to communicate scientific results effectively in presentations or
posters.
Eligibility :Passed semester 1 and Semester II ; asper rules of passing

USPHP4 : Practical course -4
Instructions:
i. All the measurements and readings should be written with proper
units in SI system only.
ii. After completing all the Required number of experiments in the
semester and recording them in journal, student will have to get
their journal certified and produce the certified journal at the time
of practical examination.
iii. While evaluating practica l, weight age should be given to
circuit/ray diagram, observations, tabular representation,
experimental skills and procedure, graph, calculation and result.
iv. Skill of doing the experiment and understanding physics concepts
should be more important than the accuracy of final result.
Learning Outcome s :
On successful completion of this course students will be able to :
i) Understand &practi se the skills while performing experiments.
ii) Understand the use of apparatus and their use without fear & hesitation.
iii) Correlate their physics theory concepts to practical application.
iv) Understand the concept of errors and their estimation.
For practical examination the learner will be examined in the experiments ( one
from each group ) . Each experiment will be of three hour duration;
Minimum 3 from each group and in all minimum 12 experiments and all the
demonstration experiments are required to be completed compulsorily.
Students are required to report all these experiments in the journal. Evaluation in
viva voce will be based on regular experiments and skill experiments.

A learner will be allowed to appear for the semester and practical e xamination only
if he submits a certified journal of Physics or a certificate that the learner has
completed the practical course of Ph ysics Semester III as per the minimum
requirements.
