Basic Sciences

This department offers graduate and doctorate degrees in analytical chemistry in line with its scientific, educational and research missions. This department enjoys state-of-the-art laboratories equipped with modern equipment such as ICP, GC, IMS, SFE, HPCLC, and NMR 90, IR, FTIR, UV-VIS spectrometers. It has three research laboratories in the field of electrochemical, molecular-atomic spectroscopy and separation.

Department of Atomic and Molecular Physics, as an affiliation of Physics Department at the Faculty of Basic Sciences of Tarbiat Modares University began its activity in 1992. Since the establishment of this department, it has succeeded in educating a large number of graduate and Ph.D. students. Currently, there are 27 graduate students and 18 postgraduate students studying in this department.

Condensed matter physics is the field of physics that deals with the macroscopic and microscopic physical properties of matter. In particular, it is concerned with the ?condensed? phases that appear whenever the number of constituents in a system is extremely large, and the interactions between the constituents are strong.

The Department of Economic Geology has been admitting master students since 1991 and it started offering doctorate programs in 2004. The research topics of the department were mainly related to MVT, VMS, Sedex, Skarn, Porphyrine deposits, orogenic gold deposits, epithermal, associated with intrusive bodies, as well as geochemical and isotopic studies.

Engineering geology deals with earth-structure and the application of the geology to engineering study for the purpose of assuring that the geological factors regarding the location, design, construction, operation and maintenance of engineering works are recognized and accounted for. Engineering geologists provide geological and geotechnical recommendations, analysis, and design associated with human development and various types of structures.

This department offers master and doctorate programs in inorganic chemistry in line with its scientific, educational and research missions. This department enjoys highly advanced laboratories equipped with modern appliances such as GC, ICP and UV-VIS, IR, FTIR, NMR90 spectrometers.

This department offers graduate and doctorate degrees in organic chemistry in accordance with its scientific, educational and research objectives. The organic chemistry department has highly advanced laboratories equipped with modern equipment such as CHN, NMR 90 and IR, FTIR, UV-VIS spectrometers. It has four research laboratories in the field of organic synthesis and a research laboratory on computational chemistry.

Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is the mathematical and conceptual framework for contemporary elementary particle physics. It is also a framework used in other areas of theoretical physics, such as condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics. In a rather informal sense QFT is the extension of quantum mechanics (QM), dealing with particles, over to fields, i.e. systems with an infinite number of degrees of freedom. QFT taken seriously in its metaphysical implications seems to give a picture of the world which is at variance with central classical conceptions of particles and fields, and even with some features of QM.

Petrology is the branch of geology that studies rocks and the conditions under which they form. Petrology has three subdivisions: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary petrology.

This department admits graduate and doctorate students in physical chemistry in line with its scientific, educational and research duties. This department has highly advanced laboratories equipped with modern instruments such as Tensiometer, EG & G, Conductometer, Fuel Cell Test System, Sonicator 3000, and NMR 90, IR, FTIR, UV-VIS spectrometers and fluorescence instruments.

Tectonics is the science that deals with the structure and properties of the Earths crust and its evolution through time. In particular, it describes the processes of mountain building, the growth and behavior of the strong, old cores of continents known as cratons, and the ways in which the relatively rigid plates that constitute the Earths outer shell interact with each other.
