Learn all about Engineering Physics and Physics from IIT prof (ft. Prof. Nirmalya Kajuri)

During JoSAA counselling, while filling in the choices of various Departments students have to rely on scattered bits of information, hearsay and sometimes even guesswork. It would be much better if they can base their options on some reliable information from trusted sources.

What source could be more trustworthy than the Professors themselves of the various Departments!

In this video, I sit down for a discussion with a faculty member from the Department of Physics so that students can find comprehensive information about this Department.

The interview is with Prof. Nirmalya Kajuri from the Department of Physics at IIT Mandi.

The following questions are discussed:

What are the broad areas within Physics?

What are the differences between the Physics degree and the Engineering Physics degree?

Can you give us an idea of the important/fundamental courses that are taught?

How important is mathematics for Physics?

How heavy is the course load? Does it leave time for extra-curricular or co-curriculuar activities (like learning programming)

What kind of core jobs are there? Are these available in India?

To what extent do you envisage the future of Physics and Engineering Physics being impacted by AI? (Not in terms of research but in terms of requirements of engineers from this Department)

What kind of skills, expertise do you think engineers from this Department would need to develop beyond their core skills?

What are the things to keep in mind for those students who would be joining Physics?
