Description

The Department of Physics at the College of Science was established in the academic year 1993/1994 and has since witnessed significant development, becoming one of the main departments of the college. The department contributes to fulfilling the academic mission that the College of Science aims to achieve.

At its establishment, the department followed an annual academic system, where students graduated after four years, and the first batch graduated in the academic year 1997/1998. In the academic year 2004/2005, the semester system became the standard system adopted by the college.
