HOD Message
“What one man calls God, another calls the Laws of Physics.”
Nikola Tesla.
Physics is the fundamental science. Physics means “nature”. Thus physics is the most important basis for engineering and technology, and as such engineering is applied Physics. To understand nature one has to do careful observations. Observations play a decisive role in the study of “nature”. To become a good engineer one must clutch the basic principles and the laws of nature. The study of nature is possible through assumptions, theories, experiments, results, analysis, logical reasoning and mathematical formulations because mathematics is the language of Physics. Understanding the principles of physics is worth enjoying the engineering. I am proud and elated to be a physicist.
