Department of Physics
Nabajyoti College, Kalgachia
Objective: The department of Physics was established with sole objective to impart up to date knowledge of science and technology to the students of this interior backward area and to enable them to compete with the national and international level and also to promote social
and economic development of this area.
Vision & Mission: The department of Physics has completed a mission of 30 years. Up to 2000 there had been only general course in degree, major in Physics was introduced since2000-2001. During this period, the department has imparted knowledge of Physics to a large number of students, which are now engaged in various professions. Had not been this College
here at Kalgachia, the greater section of people those who are now engaged in different activities would have remain illiterate and jobless. May it be partial, but we have achieved in
a position of success to full fill our mission of 20 years to guide the masses in a proper direction to cope with global changes especially in the field of science and technology.
Department at a glance: Nabajyoti College was established in 1971 at Kalgachia. The college has a special position along with the other colleges under Gauhati University as it is
the first higher educational institution in the entirely religious minority dominated areas. The people of Kalgachia, mostly are agriculturist and economically weak, yet their spirit for
learning enabled them to establish a College for the future generation. Under the guidance of Late Ataur Rahman, Deputy speaker of LAS, Assam during 1968-70, the Nabajyoti College
was established in 1971. The college was started with Arts stream and was brought under Grant-in-Aid system in 1979. Considering the demand of need, the Science stream was
started in 1983 and was brought under Grant-in-Aid system in 1992. The Science stream included Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology and Mathematics. The Physics department is a
full-fledged department today having all facilities for laboratory as well as for classroom teaching. There are four permanent faculty members and two bearers in the department.
Major course in this department has been introduced in the year 2000. The department is a two-storied R.C.C. building of an area of 300 square meters.
