quantum electronic structure theory group

Hello, World! 

Welcome to the homepage of the Quantum Electronic Structure Theory (QuEST) Group at NIT Meghalaya, located in the northeastern corner of India.

We are a research group working at the interface of molecular physics, quantum chemistry, and materials science. Our research aims to develop high-precision understanding and predictive capabilities for molecular properties, advancing fundamental science while enabling applications in quantum science and technology, spectroscopy, and supramolecular chemistry. A central focus of the QuEST Group is the development of robust relativistic quantum electronic structure methodologies, combined with large-scale numerical simulations, to investigate the electronic structure, spectroscopic properties, and chemical behavior of systems containing heavy elements. We also have a special interest in the physics and chemistry of ultracold molecules.

We have PhD positions available, motivated students (with valid GATE/NET-PhD-only or CSIR-UGC-NET-JRF/INSPIRE Fellowship) interested in theoretical and computational chemistry are highly encouraged to contact us.

Motivated candidates with independent research fellowships (e.g., NPDF) are also welcome to apply for postdoctoral research opportunities in our group.
