Physics
Overview Of Physics
The established of the Physics Department was in the academic year 1974/1975 which the same year of the establishment of the College of Education-Mukalla that followed Aden University. However, the study in the College started by diploma program. The Department witnessed all the College developments in the academic year 1980/1981, when the study developed to BSc program. In 1995 Hadhramout University was established and the College of Education joined the University. Physics Department automatically became one of the main departments in the College. When the College of Sciences was established in 2005, Physics Department became one of its five departments. The Department grants BSc degree of Sciences/ Physics.
