M.Sc. in Chemistry

The Masters Programme in Chemistry covers all aspects of different branches of chemistry and lays emphasis on detailed understanding of the fundamental principles and on training in appropriate computational and experimental methods. This rigorous training in all the major branches of chemistry – theoretical, applied, instrumental, computational and experimental – sets the stage for electives in interdisciplinary areas as well as for an introduction to the advanced emerging fields of research during the last two semesters of the programme. A project work is designed to cater to the research potential of the students wherein they are exposed to gain experience in handling sophisticated equipment (UV-vis, Fluorescence, IC, HPLC, FTIR, GC-MS/LC-MS QQQ and QToF, MP AES, SEM, TEM) and advanced concepts in Chemistry. Seminars and colloquia require students to prepare presentations to the faculty members and research scholars of the department thereby honing their communication skills and building confidence.
