Chemistry department is one of the flourishing departments of The Elegant Arts and Science College. Department of chemistry was established in the year 2015. The department is now rich with 4 faculty members and around 70 undergraduate students. The department offers undergraduate program BSc chemistry with a sanctioned strength of 40. The program includes courses in Organic, Physical, and Inorganic chemistry as core subjects and Mathematics and Physics as the complementary subjects.The laboratory is fully equipped with chemicals and instruments required to carry out practical experiments. The Department offers a vibrant atmosphere to students and faculty to nurture the spirit of scientific inquiry and highly encouraging environment.
About the Course
B. Sc.Chemistry is a 3 year graduation programme with six semesters that follows the syllabus designed by University of Calicut under Choice Based Credit and Semester System (CBCSS) for undergraduate curriculum. Along with the core subject CHEMISTRY the course also includes common English, a second language and Physics and Mathematics as complementary subject papers for the 4 semesters and two practical works for chemistry and physics. The 5 th and 6 th semesters are solely concentrated on different subjects and fields in Chemistry including Organic Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Advanced and Applied chemistry ,Polymer Chemistry etc. with Four practical papers which includes Physical ,Organic,Gravimetry, Inorganic Mixture analysis , and an academic project and an Industrial visit. The complementary chemistry paper for non- major students includes the study of General,Physical ,Organic and Applied Chemistry in a nut shell for a period of four semester. During these four semester they came to know about the practical works of Inorganic Chemistry which includes Volumetry and Mixture analysis.The detailed syllabus of the course is available on the official website of university of Calicut.
