(Departmental Journal)- The rich gamut of eminently dedicated faculty members remains actively involved in promoting the publication of the intra departmental journals (American Journal of Physical Sciences and Applications (AJPSA) (ISSN 2644-0792.) and American Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computing (ISSN: Online: 2689 – 9957),

Regular publication by the Departmental faculty members in journals of national and international recognition with High-Index Factor, book chapter publication with ISSN and ISBN numbers, publications in SCI, SSCI, SCOPUS Indexed, UGC CARE, Web of Science rated journals highlights the high academic attainment of the faculty members.
