One Week Training Programme on
Contemporary Physics Research
05-11 Jan 2023
Organised by: Dept of Physics, NIT Agartala
About the programme
Science and technology are among the most effective tools to maximize the creation of knowledge and the exploitation of that knowledge for the benefit of individual citizens and society as a whole. Thus, there is a clear incentive to provide a common platform to have effective interaction with eminent scientists, from various research institutes of international repute, who have bestowed a new dimension to basic sciences, and harbor recent trends in technology. The Dept of Physics NIT Agartala is going to organize an One Week Training Programme on "Contemporary Physics Research". The training programme is funded by the DST sponsored project STUTI (Synergistic Training program Utilizing the Scientific and Technological Infrastructure (STUTI) Program – 2021). The Scheme is intended to human resource and its capacity building through open access to S & T Infrastructure across the country. This programme is aimed to introduce the participants with the modern-day activities going on in various fields in Physics research. The participants interested in research or in the early day of their research career, will go through hands on experiences of recent activities in science and technology in the presence of subject experts and distinguished faculties.

The Institute’s mission is to help to improve the economic development of the country particularly the North-East states and also the public systems, through the pursuit of excellence in technical education, research, consultancy, and training.
About the Department
From the inception of the institute, the mandate of the Physics Department has been the conduction of teaching courses for students of Science and Engineering disciplines as well as to conduct interdisciplinary studies. Over the years the department, has evolved into State’s and region’s premier Engineering Physics teaching institution with sufficient infrastructure to run various undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The faculty members are engaged in rendering the Science and Engineering undergraduate students with the fundamental knowledge of Physics and problem solving skills, requisite for a bright career, and striving tirelessly to improve the education further. The course structure of the four semester Master’s Degree program (M.Sc.) in Physics has been designed with the specializations in theoretical and experimental Condensed Matter Physics, Physics of Plasmas, Thin Film and Nanotechnology, and Gravitation and Cosmology etc to blend all best in these areas of contemporary and applied Physics to create the post-graduates who are equally comfortable with science and technology.
