The Centre for Excellence in Nanotechnology was established in December 2006 due to the enormous potential of research in the field in the areas of drug delivery and discovery, environmental sciences, manufacturing, microelectronics and quantum computing.

The Nanotechnology Research Centre is a multidimensional research system with industry and academic associations. The Drug Delivery Group at the centre works in close tandem with many pharmaceutical companies in the country.

The centre has started a collaborative research program with Queens University in Canada for research on Fuel Cells and related technology.

The centre draws bright minds from such prestigious institutions as Trinity College, UK; Caltech, USA and IIT Madras, India. The faculty's expertise ranges from wet chemical synthesis, Nano-magnetism, thin film technology, carbon nanotechnology to designing and fabrication of ultra-high vacuum systems.

The centre is also reinforced by research scholars with experience in diverse fields such as computing, robotics, biotechnology, microbiology & chemistry. The centre currently engages four full-time research scholars and four part-time researchers.

Infrastructure

The Nanotechnology Research Centre boasts of multiple, international quality synthesis and characterization labs having a wide range of advanced equipment.

The university has funded more than 2 crores for the setting up of the research centre.
