Chemistry

Chemistry plays an integral role in today’s scientific endeavors. Our mission is therefore to provide a curriculum and environment that enable students to achieve a higher level of knowledge of chemistry. The Department is dedicated to the instruction, training, and intellectual growth of the UG and PG students. Its mission is being accomplished by several mechanisms including classic and innovative classroom, laboratory instruction and student advising to prepare life-long learners, equipped with skill and values. It is committed to an environment that is conducive to the pursuit and practice of scientific research in chemistry and related fields. The research programs are both fundamental and applied as well as in interdisciplinary efforts to impart new ideas and concepts.  They are sure to play a vital role in the education of the next generation of academic and industrial, chemists who will be called upon to solve new problems.

Through a variety of learning opportunities our students will develop:

1. A knowledge – base necessary to understand  Chemistry as a varied and central dimension of contemporary life.

2. The technical and intellectual skills necessary to facilitate creative problem solving and
3. Attitudes and values that will make them responsive as successful citizens of the nation.
