Dept of Chemistry

The Department of Chemistry started functioning in 1981 itself. At first it was only a Pre -Degree department. Later, in 1999 the undergraduate course, B.Sc Agro-Chemistry, was started. Later in 2004, the programme was renamed as \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Industrial Chemistry’. The Department was again upgraded by offering Postgraduate Course in Pharmaceutical Chemistry in 2004. In 2018, the Department was upgraded as a Research Department. Almost 400 students have passed out successfully from the department so far and it is highly gratifying and remarkable that most of them became employed in various capacities within and outside Kerala.
