IISER PUNE INTEGRATED PHD

The Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune has initiated an Integrated Ph.D. Programme  for students
on completion of their B. Sc/B.Tech or equivalent degree from any recognized university/institute in India. At  present, the program will cover Biological Sciences, Chemical Sciences, and Physical Sciences.

The Integrated PhD programme is aimed to provide students with an opportunity for taking up research at an early stage of their higher studies. We invite applications from highly motivated students with an aptitude for research in basic sciences.

Selection to this programme would be made on the basis of a written examination and interview conducted at IISER, Pune.

• Commencement of IPhD -2012: 1st August 2012
• Entrance Examination dates for 2012 IPhD admissions: 28-29th January 2012 (Saturday/Sunday) 
• Venue for IPhD entrance examination: IISER Pune
• Last date of IPhD applications 31st December 2011

Computational Nanoscience

This course will provide students with the fundamentals of computational problem-solving techniques that are used to understand and predict properties of nanoscale systems. Emphasis will be placed on how to use simulations effectively, intelligently, and cohesively to predict properties that occur at the nanoscale for real systems. The course is designed to present a broad overview of computational nanoscience and is therefore suitable for both experimental and theoretical researchers.
Specific examples of topics the course will cover are:

1. The central ideas behind a wide range of nanomaterials simulations methods
2. How to break down a nanoscale problem into its “simulatable” constituents, and then piece it back together
3. How to simulate the same thing in two different ways
4. How to know what you’re doing and why thinking is still important
5. The importance of connecting simulation directly with experiment
6. What to do with all of that data, and how to judge its accuracy and validity
7. Why the “multi-scale” modeling picture is critically important and also nonsense

While some aspects of the simulation methods such as numerical algorithms will be presented, there will be little if any programming required. Rather, we will emphasize the intelligent application (as opposed to “black box” use) of codes and methods, and the connection between the computer results and the physical properties of the problem.
