Bachelor of Science (Chemistry)

  • BScChemistry

The department of chemistry was established in the year of 2018 under the SRICT Institute of Science and Research on the footsteps of reputed and quality education based institute SRICT. Department of Chemistry started with the post-graduation course in organic chemistry (M.Sc.). After the successful journey of decades now, SRICT is a part of UPL University of Sustainable Technology. Now under the umbrella of UPL University, SRICT and SRICT-ISR both are included.

The Department of Chemistry at SRICT-ISR offers a comprehensive B.Sc. Chemistry Honours program, designed in accordance with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. This program aims to provide students with a strong foundation in chemical principles, theories, and practices, while fostering skills such as problem solving, communication, and collaboration.

The program objectives are to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of chemical concepts, theories, and principles, develop practical skills in laboratory techniques, instrumentation, and data analysis, foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, and prepare students for careers in chemistry and related fields, as well as for higher education and research.

Graduates of the B.Sc. Chemistry Honours program can pursue a wide range of career opportunities, including Research and Development (R&D) in industries such as pharmaceuticals, materials science, and energy, Quality Control and Assurance in industries such as food, cosmetics, and environmental monitoring, teaching and education in schools, colleges, and universities, government jobs in departments such as environmental science, public health, and forensic science, and higher education and research in chemistry and related fields.

The program highlights include interdisciplinary learning, incorporating concepts from physics, biology, and mathematics, emphasis on hands-on training, laboratory work, and project-based learning, opportunities for internships, research projects, and industry collaborations, highly qualified faculty members with expertise in various areas of chemistry, and state-of-the-art laboratory facilities and equipment.
