The School of Advanced Sciences (SAS) is one of the seven Schools of VIT-AP University and it houses the Departments of Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. Here, students are taught how to think critically through project-based learning (PBL) and not merely what to think. Students are encouraged to question, explore, and research throughout their studies, ranging across the various disciplines of sciences. Our School aims to provide a solid foundation in Natural Sciences, projecting the recent scientific and technological developments to the graduate, postgraduate, and Ph.D. students.

We aspire to be a valuable contributor towards the nation's growth by producing highly skilled professionals and by engaging in cutting-edge research. SAS earnestly pursues a vision of providing local, regional, national, and international leadership in research and technology development. We believe in quality of education and research with ethical and professional standards for a better tomorrow. Here, students make their choices based on their preferences and requirements that equip them with a balance of logical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential to tackle today's and tomorrow's professional challenges.
