The Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology was established in M G University in 2009. An expert committee has formulated the MS and M.Phil courses and started the first batch in 2010-11. The first batch of the centre has successfully completed and the M.Phil students have been sent to major national institutions such as Rajiv Gandhi Centre  for Biotechnology (Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala), and Central Electrochemical Research Institute (Karaikudi, Chennai) to carry out their Project work. Also the M S students have been sent to the major International Universities in Japan, Korea, Poland and Germany. The centre has also got the accreditation and financial assistance from UGC (Under 5- year Innovative Programme Scheme) to conduct the MS course.  

The Centre for Nanosciene and Nanotechnology has received about 16 crores of financial assistance for various projects from DST – Nanomission Project, UGC, DBT, ICMR and KSCSTE. The Centre has signed MoU between some International Universities which include Walter Sisulu University, South Africa; UniversitiTeknologi Mara,  Malaysia; Changwon National University, Korea; University of Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan;  University of LeMans, France; University of Rouen, France. The main International collaborators with this centre include General Cables, USA and Czech Company, Germany and the national collaborators include Alathur Pharmaceuticals Manufacturer Association, Chennai and Apollo Tyres, Kerala.
This centre has also achieved a patent with Apollo Tyres for the inner tubes and inner liners of the tyres. 

The centre is well equipped with various sophisticated instruments for the synthesis and characterization of nanostructured materials which have been procured through various projects of different funding agencies. Some of those include High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope, X-Ray Diffractometer, Scanning Probe Microscope, Differential Scanning Calorimeter, Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer, Thermal Mechanical Analyzer, Gas Permeability Tester, Lyophilizer, Electrospinning Unit, High Temperature Furnaces, Ultrasonic Processor, Spin Coater etc.
