AdmissionSyllabus
The syllabus was framed essentially along the lines of Calcutta University
Chemistry syllabus, with relevant detailed study wherever necessary.
Computational Chemistry was introduced in Semester VI. As part of the Practical
programme, an endeavour was made to incorporate Analytical and Biochemistry at
the introductory level in the 3rd Year, so that students can get a feel of the
Applicative aspects. Certain detailed practical exercises were incorporated,
especially in Semester V. Certain open – ended practical experiments were also
included on a trial basis, with the aim of development of analytical ability of
the student. Use of hazardous polluting chemicals was avoided as far as
practicable. Both Faculty and outgoing students feel that the syllabus, in spite
of being quite heavy, would provide students with the initial background
knowledge for entrance tests in the various Institutes like IIT’s, TIFR, IACS,
IISER etc, as well as specialized higher education.
Research Work / Publications
Two minor Research Projects have been sanctioned by the Department of Science
and Technology (DST).
Project Investigator : Dr. Sanjib Ganguly
Title/ Main thrust area: Synthesis and Magnetic Properties of Polynuclear
Complexes of higher Transition Elements.
Project Investigator: Dr. Ankur Ray
Title / Main Thrust Area: Synthesis of Cyclic Peptides using RCM (Ring Closing
Metathesis)
Apart from this, two of our Faculty members, Dr. Indranil Chakraborty and Mr.
Rahul Sharma, are carrying out research at their parent Institutes (Jadavpur
University and IACS Respectively).
