School of Engineering Sciences & Technology
School of Engineering Sciences & Technology (SEST) was established with a mission and objective "to pursue high quality research and impart research-led education in emerging multi-disciplinary areas encompassing science, engineering and technology". SEST started functioning from the academic year 2008-09 by initiating an integrated M.Tech./Ph.D. programme in Materials Engineering. Integrated M.Tech/Ph.D programme in Nano Science and Technology commenced in the academic year 2010-2011. Direct Ph.D. programme in Materials Engineering and Nano Science and Technology have also been initiated. SEST will progressively expand to offer multi-disciplinary programmes in other frontier areas spanning varied engineering disciplines. SEST provides a perfect environment to pursue cutting-edge cross-disciplinary research in engineering sciences and technology by taking advantage of the facilities and expertise available with the well established schools of study at the University, particularly Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics & Computer/Information Sciences and Life Sciences. SEST is offering courses/research projects in collaboration with these Schools as well as the Centre for Nanotechnology (CFN), Advance Centre for Research on High Energy Materials (ACRHEM), Centre for Modeling, Simulation and Design (CMSD) and Central Instrumentation Laboratory (CIL) on campus.

Famous quotes containing the words school of, school, engineering, sciences and/or technology:
“True it is that she who escapeth safe and unpolluted from out the school of freedom, giveth more confidence of herself than she who cometh sound out of the school of severity and restraint.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“We have passed the time of ... the laisser-faire [sic] school which believes that the government ought to do nothing but run a police force.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.”
—Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
