As the Head, Department of Physics NFC-IET Multan, my basic mission is to run the department with regularity, punctuality and discipline. I want to insist that every teacher always maintain a good relation with students, and must be able to motivate them in their regular academic activities with more efficiency. The Department vision is to nurture the student’s talent in the area of core and applied physics, and to develop ignite enthusiasm, interest and passion in the study of physics in relation with the professional course as a part of the curriculum. The curriculum of all programs offered by the department aims to provide the proficiency and understanding to fulfill the student’s interests in the field of Physics. The design of contents of the curriculum encourages and innovate the minds of students. The students joining the department at undergraduate level learn the Physics from fundamental to advance technical concept and from computational to experimental Physics. The students study the advanced courses and have choice to choose the field of their interest as research project in a particular subject in the last year that can be chosen from the vast area pf Physics: Nuclear Physics, Applied Physics, Electronics, Nanotechnology, Material Science, Environmental Science, Computational Physics and Solid State Physics.
At the end, I assure that the endeavor of our faculty members mould the students into remarkable young persons in the field of Physics. I can proudly say that our students have been excelling in their field and serving the society in a good possible way.
Introduction
The department of Physics was established in June 2020. The department presently offer undergraduate degree programs in the subject of pure physics. But in near future, we will plan to start the M.Phil (Physics) program with several inter-disciplinary areas. During this short span of time, special focus is placed on preparing students equipped with basic concepts and hands on laboratory training at undergraduate and graduate level. Students are specially exposed to practical training in the scientific organizations and industry through a meaningful internship program. They are fully trained to join the job market as a valuable asset soon after completion of their degree and take up further study without any difficulty.
Specialization
• Traditional Physics: This specialization is developed with a focus on fundamental physics combining physics to unlock the physical world around us. It is recommended for students considering an advanced degree, such as BS/MS in physics or other STEM-related areas. Courses include Mechanics, Modern Physics, Classical Mechanics, Mathematical Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Optics, and Statistical & Thermodynamics.
• Materials & Nanophysics: Materials science and nanophysics lead to well-paying careers in the high-technical industry and energy fields. Our faculty study semiconductors, magnets, superconductors, nanosensors, magnetic/photonic devices, and biomaterials which mean you have expert advice readily available when you launch your own career focused research. Courses include Quantum Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, Materials Science and Nanophysics, Modern physics, Optics and Lasers.
• Computational Physics: Physicists with a solid knowledge of computing are in high demand for various jobs, such as quantitative analyst and data scientist. The curriculum develops critical thinking, problem solving, and programming skills through physics and computer science classes. You might create a flight simulator program, or make computational models to study the ocean floor or stock market.
• Biomedical Physics: Medical physicists are scientists who work in healthcare to develop new medical technologies and radiation-based treatments. They might help beat cancer, or develop a better MRI and other medical devices. They may deal directly with patients, test and maintain equipment. Students learn the physics behind the techniques and devices used in the life and medical sciences. The curriculum for this specialization includes courses in physics and Physical chemistry.
Faculty at NFC-IET have impeccable qualifications, extensive expertise and experience in their chosen fields and an overriding commitment to the welfare of their students. Our faculty is one of the biggest reasons why students select NFC-IET.

Program Objectives
The main educational objectives of BS (4-year) degree programme are:
To impart students with a conceptual understanding of the fundamental principles of physics, natural laws and their interpretation, as well as mathematical formulation of the physical phenomena in nature.
To develop critical skills necessary for solving unknown problems from our physical surroundings.
To develop the capability of analyzing, addressing and posing solutions to problems of natural importance and to instill a deep appreciation of the need for optimum utilization of natural resources and environment.
To instill in students the habit of independent thinking, deep inquiry, and motivation for self-education.
To sharpen our students' mathematical prowess making them capable of modeling, analyzing and predicting the behavior of physical processes.
To enhance our students skills in scientific communication and the ability to clearly present physics and science in simple and clear language.
To introduce students the spirit of working in interactive groups with the necessary requirements of scientific and professional ethics.
To develop hands-on experience in different laboratory techniques and modern instrumentation.
To enhance students competence in design, conduct of experiments, analysis and presentation of experimental data and results.
To provide an in-depth understanding of some specialized area of physics through the option of elective courses.
To equip students with the necessary skills set for pursuing careers in physics education, research and industry in government.
