Profile
School of Chemistry comprises four departments - Organic, Inorganic, Physical and Natural Products. Having a humble beginning as the Department of Chemistry in 1966, it has bloomed into a full-fledged School later with a faculty of 20 endowed with a rich teaching and research expertise in diverse frontier areas such as synthesis of novel molecules, bioinorganic mimics, biomolecules from natural sources, screening for i mportant bioproperties such as anticancer, molecular modeling, EPR imaging, p hoto processes, molecular recognition studies, development of novel reagents and reactions, etc. Such a unique blend of diverse expertise of faculty in different research areas renders the School a prestigious one in Madurai Kamaraj University, which provides an excellent opportunity to students who come out creditably successful in Competitive exams such as UGC/CSIR and GATE. Students are getting placed in leading companies through c ampus interview.
This School provides a Choice Based Credit system for its M.SC. Course rendering flexibility to the curriculums to suit the individual needs of the students. It has a student strength of 24 per year in M.Sc, and 20 per annum in M.Phil. Currently, around 100 research scholars are performing research work for their Ph.D. on full and part time basis. The students qualifying in its various courses are highly placed in teaching and research positions and in industries both in India and abroad. The School has to its credit more than 200 publications in reputed international and national journals in the last five years. Based on the above impressive performance in the teaching and research programmes, the School has been accorded the UGC-DRS (PhaseII) programme, the first phase of which is over and has applied for. Our School is also a recipient of funds for infrastructures development under DST-FIST programme. Our School has also been provided funds from DST-IRHPA programme for a 300 MHz High Resolution NMR instrument that was installed a few year back Recently Dept of material science s attached to this school for administrative purposes alone..
