In the pursuit of excellence in scientific research and technological innovation, access to advanced analytical tools and sophisticated instrumentation has become a cornerstone of modern investigation. The Central Instrument Facility (CIF) stands as a testament to this need — a hub where precision meets possibility, and where researchers from diverse disciplines converge to explore, measure, and discover. Established with the vision of supporting interdisciplinary research and fostering collaboration, the CIF provides state-of-the-art instrumentation and technical expertise to students, scholars, and industry professionals alike. More than just a collection of machines, the CIF represents a commitment to quality, accessibility, and scientific rigor. External users are most welcome to reserve any available equipment through iSTEM with a nominal user charge.
