  Transition properties such as oscillator strengths, transition rates,
branching ratios and lifetimes of many low-lying states in the doubly ionized
scandium (Sc III) are reported. A relativistic method in the coupled-cluster
framework has been employed to incorporate the electron correlation effects due
to the Coulomb interaction to all orders by considering all possible singly and
doubly excited electronic configurations conjointly with the leading order
triply excited configurations in a perturbative approach. Present results are
compared with the previously reported results for the transition lines of
astrophysical interest. In addition, some of the transition properties and
lifetimes of few low-lying states are given for the first time. Role of the
correlation effects in the evaluation of the transition strengths are described
concisely.
