Chemistry is truly the “central science”. It is the science of the molecular scale, and it is at the molecular level where major advances are being made in many diverse areas such as medicine, drugs, nanaotechnology, new materials and the environment. A sound knowledge of Chemistry is required to understand most other areas of science, and this is why the study of Chemistry is either compulsory or recommended by many other disciplines in the University.
 
Chemistry opens the door for many careers because training in Chemistry is essential for many positions in industry, is highly desirable for science teaching, and is useful for careers in Public Service and Management. Both the public and the private sectors increasingly draw their management echelons from chemistry graduates.
The Department of Chemistry is one of the largest in the affiliated colleges of Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli and is a recognized center of excellence in post-graduate teaching. Currently around 80 new post-graduate students are admitted each year and there are about 140 postgraduates and research students within the Department. With an academic staff of 10, we ensure that we can offer a very wide range of research interests, and this, in turn, means that the subject is taught by enthusiastic experts in their field.
