About Department
The Department of Applied Sciences is a multidisciplinary department which aims to provide high-quality teaching of basic science subjects to the engineering students. It is functioning with dedicated faculty members who provide individual attention to the students with the aim ofdeveloping a strong foundation for their respective future careers by nurturing their analytical abilities and logical thinking. The core courses offered are Applied Physics, Applied Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, Communication Skills and Engineering Mechanics. The department provides well equipped laboratory facilities to the students as a part of their curriculum. The department has highly-motivated faculty members with vast research experience from various premier Institutes of India who endeavour to establish its name in research with world-class and high-impact outputs in the frontiers of Applied Sciences in interdisciplinary areas.
Message from HOD's Desk
Prof. Abhijit Nayak
HOD (Physics & Mechanical Engg.)
The Department of Physics & Mechanical Engineering is one of the indispensable departments of our institute. It imparts excellent quality education in the area of Physics and Mechanical Engineering. Our aim is to run the department with regularity and punctuality. This department aims to provide a strong foundation in the fundamental science with the basic tools of analysis as well as the knowledge of the principles on which engineering is based. The department also strives to instill the scientific temper and the spirit of enquiry in students. It encourages the students to understand and therefore apply the physical laws to the development of their fields of study. The department has well equipped laboratories and a departmental library as well.
The department provides its students with a number of opportunities to develop their overall personality by participating in the various cultural and co-curricular activities held throughout the year. The faculty members of the department take very active part in organizing these activities. The Department also tries to encourage research activities by conducting seminars, conferences and other academic activities. The department can boast of its highly qualified, experienced and dedicated faculty and excellent academic environment.
Prof. Arunima Kumari
HOD (Maths)
It is rightly said that “Mathematics is the mother of all science”. Just as a mother teaches the child to examine and understand everything in childhood, in the same way math teaches us.Math is a powerful tool for global understanding and communication. By using this, students can make sense of the world and solve complex and real problems.For example, the study of algebra and topology can reveal how quickly water becomes contaminated and how many people in a third world country can get sick annually from drinking that water. A study of geometry explains the science behind architecture. Statistics and probability can estimate the death toll from earthquakes and other natural calamities. By studying mathematics one can also check the authenticity and reliability of big-data and even predict about the weather and profits. As the present age is one of skill- development and innovation, the more mathematical we are in our approach, the more successful we will be. Keeping in view the universality of the subject, mathematics faculties of BPIT provide the platform to the students to realize the beauty of this subject and embrace it for solving real life problems.
