The National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) is an autonomous premier public research institute in Jatani, Odisha, India under the umbrella of Department of Atomic Energy, Govt. of India. The institute is a constituent institution of Homi Bhabha National Institute (HBNI). The prime minister, Manmohan Singh (2004–2014), laid the foundation stone on August 28, 2006, establishing the institute along the lines of the IISc in Bangalore, and its seven sister institutions, the IISERs, established at Kolkata, Pune, Mohali, Bhopal, Berhampur, Tirupati and Thiruvananthapuram in India. Unlike the IISERs, which are governed by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, NISER operates under the umbrella of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE). The government of India earmarked an initial outlay of ₹823.19 crore (US$100 million) during the first seven years of the project, starting in September 2007. It was ranked 2nd in the country by the Nature Index 2020(compiled by Nature Research). It is a Constituent Institution of Homi Bhabha National Institute so the ranking of Homi Bhabha National Institute is considered the ranking for all of its constituent institutions. (en) |
