School of Advanced Sciences (SAS)
The School of Advanced Sciences consists of Chemistry,
Physics and Mathematics disciplines. It also offers
M. Phil. and Ph. D. programmes in these domains.
The faculty of the school comprises qualified and
goal-oriented members whose research expertise
includes all frontier areas in Chemistry, Mathematics
and Physics. The faculty strength of the School is 117.
In addition, the School avails of the services of 34 nonteaching
staff members.
The curriculum keeps abreast of the latest advancements in the respective domains and endeavours to mould the students into scientists of high quality. Graduates from the School are much sought after by companies in India and many have secured jobs and admissions in institutions abroad.
The research focus areas of the divisions of the School are :
Applied Analysis, Applied Algebra, Fluid Dynamics, Statistics & Operational Research, Crystal Growth and Crystallography, Nuclear & Medical Physics, Photonics, Materials, Organic Chemistry, Environmental & Analytical Chemistry, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry. The School has been receiving research grants from funding agencies such as DST, CSIR, DRDO, BRNS, IGCAR and ARDB. The School is also recognised by DST for support under the FIST programme.
School of Advanced Science has research laboratories equipped with the facilities such as :
Abbe Refractometer / Cryostat / Crystal Cutting Machine / Dielectric Measurement / Electrochemical Workstation (CHI 660C, USA) / Evaporation Controlled Crystallisation Chamber / FT-IR Spectrophotometer (ALPHA-T, Bruker) / Gas Chromatograph (Mayura, Bangalore) / Glass Sealing Unit / Glove Box (Technico, Chennai) / Hall Measurement Setup / High Temperature Muffle Furnaces (Thermolyne, USA) / HPLC (Perkin- Elmer) / IV-CV Measurement Setup / LCR Meter (42 HZ to 5 MHZ) / Materials Testing Machine (H5KS, Tinius Olsen Ltd, UK) / Millipore Water Purifier / Mitutoyo Microhardness Tester - with Vicker's & Knoop Indenter-CCD Camera / Nd:YAG Laser (1064 nm, 10 ns, 10 Hz, 420 mJ ) with Vibration Isolation Support/ Powder X-ray Diffractometer (D8 Advanced, Bruker) / Prism Coupler (M/2010) / Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer (SDTQ600, TA Instruments) / Thermal Evaporation Vacuum Coating Unit / Thermoelectric Measurement setup / Time Domain Reflectometry / UV-Vis Spectrophotometer (Shimadzu) / Vacuum Annealing Furnace / Vertical Bridgman Set-up with Eurotherm Controller - Furnace - 1000ºC
Major research areas in Mathematics include Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics, Complex Analysis, Geometric Function Theory, Algebra, Mathematical Programming, Graph Theory, Stochastic Processes and Queuing Theory, Coding Theory and Theory of Computation, Optimal Control Problems and Numerical Methods. www.vit.ac.in/sas/ A view of the first year students chemistry laboratory
