The department is university Centre for PG lectures of M.Sc.-II Organic Chemistry. The teacher of the department use conventional and computer aided pedagogical methods to make learning easy and effective. Research is an integrated part in the department of Chemistry. Several research projects have been computed by the staff and students. Faculty members as well as graduate and postgraduate students of the department publish their research work in various international and national journals. The faculty members regularly organize and also attend workshops/conferences/seminars.
