University Instrumentation Centre

About UIC

University Instrumentation Centre -MRU is established with an objective to provide advanced instrumentation facilities to meet the modern day science demands. This Centre will help for catering research need of Chemical sciences, life sciences, material sciences, nano sciences and other branches of applied sciences and engineering. UIC-MRU at present provides instrumentation facility for its internal users as well as external users (research students, faculty and industries).

Vision:

• UIC-MRU envisions to be an advanced instrumentation centre by acquiring the modern and sophisticated instruments to serve in frontier areas of Science & Technology. 　

Mission:

• To host various sophisticated instruments to cater the need of cutting-edge research in thrust areas of science and technology.
• To be known as innovative, creative and successful centre for providing high quality sample/specimen fabrication and characterization/analysis.
• To make available the sophisticated instruments at reasonable charges to the faculty members, scientists, UG/ PG/ Ph.D. students and individuals from universities, laboratories, institutes, and industries that are either government or self-funded.

Objectives of the UIC

University Instrumentation Centre, ManavRachna University (UIC-MRU), Faridabad, has been created with following objectives:-

• To offer, a wide range of fabrication, characterization, testing techniques for Chemical, Mechanical,Nano-Bio-Material, Physics, Agriculture, Geophysical researchers/scientists.
• To encourage and support, extensively, to the UG/PG/Ph.D. students and faculty members towards quality research and developments. 
• To extend the collaborative research leading to quality publications/patents/reports to a large extent.
• To generate Research &Consultancy Grants from Govt. Funded Schemes and Industries.
• To extend the facility to external organizations; academic institutions and industries in India/abroad.
• To extend the facility for organizing short term courses/workshops on the use and application of various instruments and analytical techniques.

At present UIC has following facilities:
