Overview
The Department of Chemistry started functioning since the inception of MIT in the year 1957 as a supporting department for all B.Tech. program. Department offers Engineering Chemistry course for first-year and program / open electives for higher semesters. Since 2009, the department is offering the post-graduate program, M.Sc. (Chemistry) with the main focus on Organic Chemistry. From 2021 admissions, the department is offering an M.Sc. program in two specializations (Organic Chemistry and Applied Chemistry). The department is also offering a Ph.D. program in emerging areas of research. The department has a good infrastructure and enthusiastic, competent, and well-qualified faculty.
