BSc Nautical Sciences NAUTICAL PHYSICS and ELECTRONICS IV Syllabus - Mumbai University 2026
This degree runs on the Choice Based Credit System throughout, items 4.69, 4.70 and 4.71 of the Academic Council of 23 July 2020, in force from the academic year 2020-21. The University’s earlier Credit Based Semester and Grading System syllabus is what her older third-year timetables name, so check which scheme your exam form names before you revise.

Syllabus for NAUTICAL PHYSICS and ELECTRONICS - IV
The University heads this paper’s own syllabus page “NAUTICAL PHYSICS& ELECRONICS - IV”. Her credit structure on the facing page, and the Semester III paper of the same series, both read “Electronics”, so that is the spelling used here.
