  • Understanding and Correlating between Theoretical and Experimental aspects of the subjects (highly essential for Laboratory based subjects).
  • Developing concepts in Pure Subjects along with Applied and Interdisciplinary Subject Areas for Real Life Applications.
  • Identify various Academic and Professional areas.
  • Catering to the needs of Present Day Problems & allied Thrust Areas and Service to Human Race.

Program Specific Outcome (PSO)

Detailed study of Organic, Inorganic, Physical and Analytical chemistry, Practical skill development for quantitative and qualitative analysis of a sample, Synthesis of organic compounds and ability to determine kinetic and thermodynamic phenomena of reactions with the help of modern instruments.

Course Outcomes

Students graduating in Chemistry will be able to understand

  • The fundamentals of acid/base equilibria, including pH calculations, buffer behavior, acid/base titrations, and their relationship to electrophiles and nucleophiles.
  • The thermodynamic and kinetic forces involved in chemical reactions which determine how much and how soon products are formed.
  • Current bonding models for simple inorganic and organic molecules in order to predict structures and important bonding parameters.
  • General periodicity patterns of (organic/inorganic) molecules, and the ability to design synthetic approaches to such species.
  • How to design and perform experiments to determine the rate, order, and activation energy of chemical reactions by varying concentrations and/or temperature.
  • Methods to measure equilibrium concentrations and equilibrium constants for acid-base, solubility, and complexation reactions given initial concentrations of reactant and quantitative and qualitative analysis of samples.
