As a very young school in an equally new institution, the School of Physics at IISER-TVM is actively looking to expand both its research and teaching activities. 

The school at present has faculty members working on core areas such as:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • High-energy Physics
  • Optics
  • Statistical Mechanics
and as well as emerging areas like
  • Gravitational wave astronomy
  • Nanoscale materials
  • Quantum information theory  
  • Solar cells. 
The school is looking forward to expand in other areas like soft condensed matter(theory & experiment) and quantum optics. 

Currently, the school has 

Already hosting several dynamic research programs with one industry funded research, two Max Planck partner groups (MPG on Cosmology & Gravity, MPG on Gravitational Wave Physics) and having several faculty members with national and international research fellowships, the platform for building a school that may be counted among the best is in place.
