As part of the academic curriculum, the
Department of Physics organized a field trip to the Indian Space Research
Organisation (ISRO) on 21st August 2026 to provide
students with practical exposure to space science and technology. Five faculty members and 48 final-year UG and PG students,
participated in the field visit. During the visit, students gained insights
into ISRO’s major activities, including satellite communication, remote
sensing, navigation, meteorology, space science and launch vehicle technology.
They learned about the design and applications of satellites and the role of
launch vehicles in space missions. The visit helped students understand the
practical applications of concepts such as mechanics, electromagnetism, optics,
thermodynamics, electronics, modern physics and materials science. It also
provided valuable exposure to the working environment of scientists and
engineers and highlighted the importance of innovation, teamwork, precision and
quality in space research. Overall, the field trip was an enriching and
inspiring academic experience that strengthened students’ practical
understanding of Physics and encouraged their interest in space science,
research and advanced technology.
