Physical Sciences Activities: Theory to Turf 1.0
Date: 29 July 2026
The Department of Physical Sciences, School of Computational and Physical Sciences, organized Theory to Turf while considering the need for collaboration and critical thinking among students, which would bridge the gap between classroom theories and practice in real life. The debaters were given an opportunity to participate in the “Steelman Swap” type of debate, which required them to switch from arguing their position to presenting the opposition viewpoint. The event comprised ten teams and several rounds of debates on various topics, including the future of reservation policy, digital cash, and the gig economy. Apart from observing the critical thinking skills demonstrated by the debaters, one could notice how teammates collaborated to develop arguments for their chosen topic. Therefore, the debaters changed their perception of the issues after the final round of debates.
Physics Club Activity: Exploring Aerodynamics Through Hands-on Learning
Date: 25 July 2026
The Department of Physical Sciences organized 3D PHYX, a physics-based club activity designed to foster scientific curiosity and experiential learning among B. Sc. CSPHEL students. The theme of the event was Basics of Aerodynamics, providing participants with an engaging platform to explore the principles of flight through both theory and practical application.
