JNCASR - PhD & PG Admissions are now Open; Important Dates, Eligibility, Apply, Scholarship, etc

Updated: Mar 24, 2020

The Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), Jakkur, Bengaluru was established in 1989 by the Department of Science and Technology of the Government of India, to mark the birth centenary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.


Researchers at the Centre are divided into nine units: Chemistry and Physics of Materials, Educational Technology, Engineering Mechanics, Evolutionary and Integrative Biology, Geodynamics, Molecular Biology and Genetics, New Chemistry, Neuroscience, Theoretical Sciences. Though it is, of course, difficult to quantify scientific performance, by all numerical indications (numbers of publications, citations, grants, patents filed, etc.), science at the Centre is flourishing. In the last few years, the Centre’s faculty members have published their research in some of the most prestigious scientific journals, including Nature, Nature Medicine, Science, Evolution, the Journal of the American Chemical Society, Angewandte Chemie, the Journal of Fluid Mechanics, and Physical Review Letters. The work of the Centre’s faculty is also being recognized by various awards.
