Department Profile

Establishment :

The Department of Chemistry established in the year 1965 with 3 faculty members and 24 students. The department made its good beginning as it attracted good number of students. Since then, the department developed both qualitatively and quantitatively because of the dedicated services of the faculty and other staff members.

Vision:

      To prepare students for a diverse and changing world so that they play a role to  contribute to a chemically literate society.

Mission:

• To provide quality and value based education.
• To provide chemistry expertise with environmental protection.
• To develop scientific temper among the students for betterment of society.

Scope & Importance of the subject:

Chemistry is often called the “central science” because it connects other sciences, such as physics, material science, environmental science, nanotechnology, biology, pharmacy, medicine, bioimformatics and geology. There are five main branches of Chemistry namely: Physical, Organic, Inorganic, Analytical and Biochemistry.

Here are some of the best uses to study chemistry, Chemistry helps you to understand the world around you. Chemical reaction takes place in plants & animals, this results in the formation of substances in some plants & animals that can be used to treat illness. Chemistry is important to everyday life, because it provides medicine, the food we consume comes directly from chemical processes. A working knowledge of chemistryinforms medicine, energy production & the vast majority of industrial processes.

The Chemistry graduates have many options for their higher studies. Majority of these  graduates options for master’s degree in Analytical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Physical & material chemistry.
