About the Department:

P.G. Department of Chemistry contributes to the mission of College by preparing students for academic transfer, promoting in professional programs, entering the workforce and by supporting an academic and scientific culture in the College. The objective of the department is to impart education in the fundamental and advanced areas of Chemistry and relate it to nature, life and society. The Chemistry Department was established in 1966 and at that time department offers undergraduate courses only. Later on, Post graduate course was also introduced in 2016 which is running successfully till date.

  Our Vision:

  • To impart quality higher education in all branches of Chemistry along with excellence in research to provide manpower to multi-sectoral Industries, Research Institutions and Academia.
  • To provide students with a broad and balanced foundation of chemical knowledge and practical skills.
  • To generate in students an appreciation of the importance of chemistry in an industrial, economic, environmental and social context.

  Our Mission:

  • Development of best resources for students and researchers.
  • Strong collaboration with institutions, universities and industries of international repute.
  • Stimulate the young growing minds and discover their talents in chemistry, through dedicated teaching and innovative instructional methods
  • Support the developmental activities of the college in all aspects and makes the department vibrant.

  OBJECTIVES:

  • To furnish a comprehensive foundation in chemistry that emphasizes scientific reasoning and analytical problem solving capability
  • To demonstrate and apply the fundamental knowledge of the basic principles in various fields of Chemistry
  • To develop critical thinking which will be able to put forward new ideas, explain observations and draw logical inference form scientific studies in field of chemistry.
  • To develop ability to solve complex chemical problems, e.g., analysis of data, synthetic logic, spectroscopy, structure and modeling, team-based problem solving, etc. which are essential skills to succeed in field of research or in industry
  • To apply various aspects of chemistry in natural products and its isolations, pharmaceuticals, dyes, textiles, polymers, petroleum products, forensic etc. and also to develop interdisciplinary approach to the subject
  • To develop ability to handle standard laboratory equipment, modern scientific instruments, planning and performing the laboratory experiments.
  • To create awareness and sense of responsibilities towards environment and apply knowledge to solve the issues related to Environmental pollution.
