Science
S. S. Pawar college runs under the aegis of Mahatma Phule Vidya Pratishthan, Pune.
Physics
The teaching of physics at the college level has long relied on lectures and lab exercises to reinforce concepts introduced in class. While these methods can be effective, they’re even more successful when paired with live demonstrations, hands-on experiments, and thought-provoking questions that inspire students to consider the “why” behind every experiment. Rich with opportunities for self-discovery, active learning methods like these help students to change their preconceived notions about physics and build a deeper understanding of the fundamental concepts. At our institution, the Physics department has played a vital role in science education since our inception in June 2017. We’re excited to offer a range of innovative courses and areas of focus, such as Material Science, Instrumentation, Advanced Electronics, and Nanotechnology, at the Undergraduate level, ensuring students have the tools and knowledge to succeed in the field.
