International School Photonics

International School of Photonics (ISP) came in to existence in 1995 by restructuring and delinking the laser laboratories along with the faculty members of the laser group from the Department of Physics at Cochin University of Science and Technology. Manpower development and establishment of research activities in photonics and related fields are the major objectives of ISP. In 1995 we started a three semester M.Tech course in Optoelectronics and Laser Technology . In 2001 we also started an M.Phil course in Photonics with an objective to train teachers in the area of Photonics.

The School has one of the best laser laboratories in the country. Our research areas span from fundamental to applied fields in photonics and related areas. At present we have collaborative research activities with various institutions in India and abroad. The most important one is with the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands in the area of Photonics. This joint programme is supported under the MHO assistance offered by the Dutch government to ISP. The total project outlay during the first phase is about NLG 2 million for the period of four years.
