Section E of the Department of Physics was established in 2007, after the split of the Section of Applied Physics, and in 2019 it was renamed "Section of Electronic Physics and Systems". The main areas of interest of Section E are Electronic Physics and its technological applications, Applied Electromagnetics, Theory and Applications of Telecommunications, Computers, Automatic Control Systems, and Information Physics. These areas are of great research interest as they drive modern technological developments.
The teaching staff of the Section contributes to the education of the students of the Department of Physics, while providing specialization in the above areas through the relevant direction of the curriculum and the postgraduate programmes it supports.
The Electronic Physics Laboratory, one of the oldest Laboratories of the Department of Physics, is part of Section E, and provides the required educational and laboratory infrastructure in core and elective courses, both at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
