Indian Institute of Astrophysics Offered Mega Recruitment In Various Positions For Freshers/Experience
ABOUT COMPANY
The Indian Institute of Astrophysics , with its headquarters in Bangalore , India, is a premier national institute of India for the study of and research into topics pertaining to astronomy, astrophysics and related subjects.
The Institute has a network of laboratories and observatories located in various places in India, including Kodaikanal, Kavalur , Gauribidanur, Hanle and Hosakote.
The origin of the Indian Institute of Astrophysics can be traced to a private observatory established by William Petrie , an officer of the East India Company. He set up that private observatory in his residence located in Egmore, Chennai , India. The main aim of the observatory, according to Petrie, was "to provide navigational assistance to the company ships and help determine the longitudes by observing the eclipses of Moon and satellites of Jupiter". In 1790, this private observatory was taken over by the East India Company, with Michael Topping as an astronomer. In 1792, the observatory was expanded and shifted to a complex in Nungambakkam area of Chennai. This was the first modern observatory outside Europe.
Presently, the Indian Institute of Astrophysics functions under the control of the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India.
The East India Company having resolved to establish an observatory at Madras for promoting the knowledge of Astronomy, Geography and Navigation in India, Sir Charles Oakeley, then President of the Council had the building for the observatory completed by 1792. The Madras series of observations had commenced in 1787* through the efforts of a member of the Madras Government - William Petrie - who had in his possession two three-inch achromatic telescopes, two astronomical clocks with compound pendulums and an excellent transit instrument.
This equipment formed the nucleus of instrumentation of the new observatory, which soon embarked on a series of observations of the stars, the moon, and eclipses of Jupiter's satellites, with the accurate determination of longitude, as its first concern. The pier that carried the original small transit instrument on a massive granite pillar has on it an inscription in Latin, Tamil, Telugu and Hindustani, so that " Posterity may be informed a thousand years hence of the period when the mathematical sciences were first planted by British Liberality in Asia". In any case this quotation from the first annual report of the observatory is at least a record of the fact that astronomical activity at the Madras Observatory was indeed the first among British efforts at scientific studies in India.
First two semester classes will be held at the Department of Applied Optics and Photonics, University of Calcutta. The third and fourth semester consist of internship at IIA laboratories and projects at field stations respectively. Upon successful completion of two years in the program the candidates will be awarded a M.Tech in Astronomical instrumentation. In the third year of the Program, students who qualify for continuation in the program leading to the Ph.D (Tech.) degree will begin research work at IIA.
They will be paid fellowship of Rs. 18,000/-pm beginning the third year, and Rs. 20,000/-pm beginning the fifth year of the program. The normal duration of the program will be 6 years, including the minimum 2 years for the Master's degree. The candidates would satisfy all the administrative requirements of the University and submit their Ph.D. thesis to the University of Calcutta. Students have to work mainly on Optics and related instrumentation part at CU. M.tech in Astronomical Instrumentation is mainly to do with designing instruments and to develop new techniques like Active optics, Adaptive optics, design of radio telescopes, Space telescopes, Balloon observations, Photon detectors, Stellar interferometers etc. IIA is doing Active research in these topics with maximum funding resources.
Recently IIA has signed a mighty project in collaboration with Caltech ,Japan,china, Canada, India named Thirty Meter Telescope whit Prof.B.Eswer Reddy,IIA as director of TMT,India.
