Ph.D. Programme
in Chemistry
Being a central science, chemistry is used in every aspect of a person's life from the food, pharmaceutical, biomedical, cosmetic, agricultural to consumable products. Chemistry plays an important role towards the development and growth of different types of industries. Majority of the research in the department of chemistry are highly interdisciplinary, significantly contributing to the advancement of sciences at the intersection of variety of fields.The doctoral program in chemistry is designed to create research opportunities in a wide range of interest from traditional physical, inorganic, organic chemistry to new frontiers of chemical biology, material sciences, nanoscience, drug-designing, chemistry for energy and sustainability.
