Centre for Nano Science and Engineering CeNSE Details
The Centre for Nano Science and Engineering (CeNSE) focuses on interdisciplinary research and education in the broad area of nano-scale science and technology, covering topics such as nanoelectronics, devices, materials, micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems, bio- and nanophotonics, bio-electronic interfaces and integrated small-scale systems. In addition to the research programs of the core faculty, the Centre runs an interdisciplinary research and training program involving more than 50 faculty members from various departments of engineering and basic science at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc). The Centre has state-of-the-art nanofabrication and characterization facilities to enable the development of cutting-edge nanoscale technologies for various applications.The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) ranked No:1 in the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was founded in 1909 as a result of the joint efforts of Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata, the Government of India, and the Maharaja of Mysore. Over the 105 years since its establishment, IISc has become the premier institute for advanced scientific and technological research and education in India. Beginning with 2 departments and 21 students in 1911, today IISc has over 40 departments, units, or centres, 3500 students, and about 500 academic and scientific staff, supported by 600 administrative personnel. Out of this population of students, about 2200 are in various PhD programs, almost 900 are enrolled for various Masters degrees, whereas about 400 are registered in the newly established, research oriented, four-year Bachelor of Science (Research) programme, of which the first batch graduated in 2015.
