Message

Dear Physics Family

We wish to propose “Adopt a child” scheme to pursue career in Physics. In this you can virtually adopt a child to pursue B.Sc (Hons) Physics or Masters in Physics and pay her fees. This will shape life of a needy and deserving students and you will be informed for her academic progress. Your contribution can go a long way for this noble cause. The approximate fee of B.Sc Hons in Physics is Rs. 26,000 per semester and for masters in Physics its Rs. 30,000 per semester.

If you are interested then please send message to Physics faculty or mail at kmvphy@yahoo.co.in. You will be paying directly to college so there is no doubt of misappropriation of funds. Please forward this message to your class groups or contacts or family members or philanthropist who can support. The purpose of this is to spread awareness for bright carrier in Physics.

Support For this noble cause!
