• Vision and Mission

  Scientific instruments may be usefully regarded as the capital goods of the scientific research. That is to say, the conduct of scientific research generally requires some antecedent investment in specific equipment for purposes of enhancing the ability to observe and measure specific categories of natural phenomena. In due course of time, UOR-USIC may play its role in enhancing quality publications and also encourage more people to go for experimental research for practical applications.
