Science and Humanities
This laboratory focuses on application of principles of physics and aims to supplement the factual knowledge gained in theory by first hand experiments. This will develop scientific temper and help to apply the basic concepts and principles in solving engineering and technology-based problems. In addition, students get necessary confidence in handling equipment and thus learn various skills in measurement.
