INTRODUCTION

The Department of Physics is one of the three pioneer science departments, which were introduced at the time of establishment of University of Balochistan, Quetta in 1971. In the first batch ten students were enrolled for a two year M.Sc. degree course with four teaching staff members. A three years B.Sc.(Honours) course was also introduced in 1976 which was later abolished in 1992.
