Somnath Acharya Email: somphys@gmail.com Program: Ph.D (2019) In 2013, I enrolled in the School of Physical Sciences for my Ph.D. program. The school was relatively new at that time, offering a limited number of courses, but the faculty members were exceptionally enthusiastic. Over the next two years, I witnessed rapid development within the school, both in terms of expanding course offerings and increasing research output. The establishment of world-class laboratories further enhanced the academic environment.

Shambhavi Jaiswal Email: sjaiswal0711@gmail.com Program: M.Sc. (2024) My experience at IIT Mandi's School of Physical Sciences greatly expanded my knowledge base. The research projects effectively challenged us, and the curriculum allowed us to explore other scientific fields beyond physics. Early exposure to the school's diverse research areas would have further enriched our learning journey, allowing students to connect more effectively with potential research opportunities.
Prachee Mathur Email: er.pracheemathur@gmail.com Program: B. Tech EP. (2024) Completing my B.Tech in Engineering Physics from the School of Physical Sciences at IIT Mandi was a transformative experience. I delved into a vast array of subjects, gaining a broad understanding of both theoretical and applied physics. The opportunity to explore various fields, including software development and cutting-edge research, was invaluable.
Participating in major research projects allowed me to apply my knowledge to real-world problems, enhancing my analytical and problem-solving skills. These experiences taught me the importance of persistence, collaboration, and innovation.
Beyond academics, my time at IIT Mandi fostered personal growth, helping me develop a holistic perspective on life and its sustenance. Overall, my journey at IIT Mandi provided me with a comprehensive education, practical experience, and a profound appreciation for life's complexities.
Monika Singh Email: ms8963375@gmail.com Program: M.Sc. (2021) It was overwhelming throughout the time. I received valuable career guidance and support from my master's research supervisor. The research culture in the department is fantastic, I would say academic modules for master's programs needed to be updated during my period of studying in the department. Also, there's one course experimental research techniques is an underrated course that floats in the wrong semester. It should be floated before the PGP starts. It will be helpful for students to decide, which research field they are interested in to start their research journey.
