and frequent guest lectures by experts in different
fields of physics. |

The department was offering
physics education with a two year B.Sc Degree course
1956, which was converted to a three year B.Sc Degree
course in 1957. It became a Post-Graduate department
in 1958. It was the first to have the PG physics course
in Madurai. Prof P.S. VBaradachari as the first Head
of the Post-Graduate department, nourished the same
to become a well recognized centre of physics educateion.
Dr. K. Ramamoorthy, Prof S. Alwan, Dr.K.R. Balasubramanian,
Prof Rangaragan, Prof N.Sankarasubramanian, Prof M.Krishnamoorthy,
Prof N.Raman, Prof R. Sundarajan have subsequently contributed
