About The Department
Department of Chemistry started its journey as an intermediate department way back in 1948 under the affiliation of the Calcutta University. In the year 1958, the affiliation was extended to the undergraduate course with B.Sc. (Pure Science General). In 1960-61, after the establishment of the Burdwan University, the college got its new affiliation to the Burdwan University and in the year 1983, the University permitted the opening of Chemistry Honours course with 15 seats at the initial level. At present the department is nurtured by three full-time and two SACT teachers; two of whom are specialized in the branch of Inorganic Chemistry, one in Organic Chemistry and two in Physical Chemistry. To cope up with the CBCS and NEP 2020 curriculum, the department has developed three commendable laboratory infrastructures for the benefit of the undergraduate students. The Departmental Library/ Seminar Library is well equipped with about 293 books (Text and Reference) for the use of the students as well as the teachers. The students have the liberty of expressing their views, creativity and transmitting important messages by publishing the Department Wall Magazine ‘RESONANCE’, being published annually.
