Familiarity with advanced software and skills
2 Specialisations under Engineering Physics (Hons)
B.Tech. Engineering Physics (EP) students at Bennett University (BU) build strong foundations in Physics, Mathematics, and engineering with the help of the fundamental courses. The curriculum exposes the students to advanced courses in material science, photonics, and quantum physics, which find diverse applications in many technological sectors such as nanotechnology, optical fiber communication, quantum technology, to name a few.
B. Tech EP program aims to offer a four-dimensional (4D) teaching and learning experience to the students. In a 4D approach, the students get the opportunity to develop knowledge, skill, character as well as metacognition mindset.
The curriculum is divided into three broad sections of Core, Elective and Project. The core curriculum is bifurcated in such a way that the basic science is in harmony with engineering science and social science courses.
Strong foundation in fundamental science, is the heart of the EP program. Apart from Physics, the curriculum has courses from other fundamental branches with an emphasis on Mathematics. The humanities and social science courses in the curriculum, cater for soft skill and character development. Additionally, it offers insights into the mental make-up of entrepreneurs.
The courses in engineering science have elements of computer science, mechanical engineering along with electronics and communication engineering. The curriculum allows a unique opportunity to students to choose between a computer science and electronic courses, apart from the mandatory foundation level subjects.

The B.Tech in Engineering (EP) program structure maintains a delicate balance among Fundamental Sciences, Engineering and Social Sciences. There is enough scope for students to be exposed to cutting-edge research topics as reflected in the curriculum:-
To obtain a Minor in Engineering Physics, the B. Tech Students from other branches need to take 4 courses from Department of Physics with a total of 16 credits. Similarly, EP student may choose a Minor from other engineering branches.
To earn an Honours degree in specialised domain in any of the following areas, an EP student needs to earn 18 additional credits, apart from a regular degree from the Physics Department.
The EP curriculum has 5 elective courses and two major projects. The department offers six Specialisationon the following topics:
If a student wants to get specialization in his/her degree, he/she must complete at least 4 electives from the corresponding specialization basket and he/she must also do Major Project II in the same field. Each of these Specialisations contains courses offered by the Physics department and other departments of SEAS. A student can choose a maximum of two courses offered by other departments.
During fours years, students learn and acquire:
Apart from the 12 credit Industrial R&D Project in the 8th semester, there are two mandatory projects in the 6th and 7th semester, each for 2 and 3 credits, respectively. In the past, students have actively engaged in projects related to Nanotechnology, Photovoltaics, Soft condensed matter physics and Biophysics, Computational condensed matter physics, Ultracold atoms, Quantum optics, and quantum information science. Students have also participated in international startups in the industrial project, earning remuneration based on their performances. They have also been selected for fully funded final semester R&D project in eminent universities in Europe and top tier research labs in India.
Some of the recently Completed Projects / Internship offered by the department
As a part of the curriculum, all B.Tech Engineering Physics students must take up a summer internship at the end of the 6th semester. In the past, students have attended a summer school at IISER-Kolkata and have carried out winter internships at IIT Guwahati, CDAC Pune. Students have also been selected for summer internships in European Universities with competitive salaries. Students have also qualified for jobs with competitive salaries from university placement drive.
Theory and experiment are blended in the B.Tech curriculum.
Currently, the department has nine laboratories.
