Dr. AJIT KUMAR

About

I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Ranchi University, Ranchi, and obtained a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Banaras Hindu University. I worked as a DST Young Scientist at the National Institute of Foundry & Forge Technology, Ranchi (now NIAMT, Ranchi). Dr. Ajit Kumar is currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Chemistry, School of Applied Material Sciences at the Central University of Gujarat. His research interests include Analytical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry and Supramolecular Chemistry. It focuses on exploring novel optical materials for the development of efficient synthetic probes.
