The Botany, Chemistry, Geology and Physics are DST FIST sponsored Departments. The Department of Geology is actively involved in exploration and exploitation of earth resources of these regions. These include oil, mineral and ground water resources. They have also generated knowledge about these regions and technology for the exploitation and utilisation. The departments of Botany, Chemistry, Geology, Mathematics & Statistics, Physics and Zoology are providing high quality education and opportunities/infrastructure for research on different material assets of Western Rajasthan. With the help of UGC and other funding agencies like CSIR, DBT, DOEN, DRDO, DST, ICAR, ICFRE and ISRO, these departments have acquired sophisticated equipment and facilities like field stations, green house, micro propagation laboratory.
The Departments of Botany and Zoology are working on conservation of the threatened and endangered species of Desert and Aravalli eco-systems. They are studying the fragile eco-systems and the natural resources. The Department of Chemistry has been working on Chemistry of natural products and for the development of tie and dye industry, environmental remediation, designing of devices for storage of energy and for promoting chemical and natural product based industries.
The Department of Physics and Mathematics are working in collaboration with various agencies including DRDO for generating knowledge and development of scientific methods not only for teaching and education but for utilisation in science based industries and strategic areas like Oil exploration and Designs related to defence. The Department of Physics is working on various aspects of material sciences in collaboration with DRDO and BARC.
The Faculty of Science and its departments have collaborations/MOUs with industries and organizations. Individual laboratories/teachers are helping the Governmental and non-governmental organisations in development and utilisation of technologies based on science and resources generated in our university.

Famous quotes containing the words faculty of, faculty and/or science:
“There is an inner world; and a spiritual faculty of discerning it with absolute clearness, nay, with the most minute and brilliant distinctness. But it is part of our earthly lot that it is the outer world, in which we are encased, which is the lever that brings that spiritual faculty into play.”
—E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
“Where is he who seeing a thousand men useless and unhappy, and making the whole region forlorn by their inaction, and conscious himself of possessing the faculty they want, does not hear his call to go and be their king?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The science hangs like a gathering fog in a valley, a fog which begins nowhere and goes nowhere, an incidental, unmeaning inconvenience to passers-by.”
