Profile
Shivaji University, Kolhapur www.unishivaji.ac.in
February 2021
Department Profile Name of the Department: School of Nanoscience and Technology
Year of Establishment: 2012
1. From the Desk of Head:
Nanoworld is emerging as a small world with enormous opportunities. Objects in the
range of 1-100 nm exhibit unexpected chemical, physical and biological properties. These
astonishing new properties are the gateway to innovation in a variety of fields includ ing
chemistry, biology, physics, material and environmental sciences, engineering and medicine.
Hence developing an exciting and comprehensive Nanoscience Education Program combining
cutting-edge nanofabrication instruments with a stimulating curriculum is need of an hour.
Hence it was decided to establish School of Nanoscience and Technology on the Shivaji
University campus on the eve of golden jubilee celebration.
The School of Nanoscience and Technology (B.Sc.-M.Sc. 5 year integrated course)
intends to cultivate an interdisciplinary approach and bring together major science branches
under one umbrella. This will enable students to undertake their careers in Nanotechnology
based industries, Nanotechnology based research institutes around the world, Process and
Manufacturing industries, Research and Development Laboratories, Employment as a
teacher/scientist, Govt. Organizations, Higher studies in other national institutes (Ph.D.) and
Research abroad.
I hope that the school curriculum and training will help prepare students to succeed in
their chosen careers by enhancing their scientific knowledge, skills and literacy through hands-
on education of science and engineering concepts at the nanoscale.
Dr. K. K. Sharma
I/C Director,
School of Nanoscience and Technology,
Shivaji University, Kolhapur
2. Brief history of the department along with present focus in academic & research
With the support and sanction of Government of Maharashtra, “School of
Nanoscience and Technology” was started in the university campus on the eve of
golden jubilee celebration-2012. Since its establishment, this course has been catering
the needs of upcoming budding scientists in the field of Nanoscience and
Nanotechnology. The school is functioning successfully with excellent infrastructure
and established national and international collaborative networks in the area of research
and development. All the students rigorously undergo research project based extensive
learning and training to get hands on experiences of cutting edge, multidisciplina ry
technologies. The school, with its proven record in the research fields such as
nanomaterials for energy storage and generation, nanocatalysis, nanobiotechnology,
nanoelectronics, nanomaterials and devices, trains students in these areas of research.
Besides, the school is also well known as a research and academic centre to get
associated and collaborate with for various academic and scientific activities. Many
faculty members, researchers and students from different departments of Shivaj i
University and affiliated colleges are associated with the school and capitalize on good
research infrastructure and expertise of the school.
