B.Sc(Chemistry)

The department of Chemistry of Kishore Bharati Bhagini Nivedita College (Co-Ed) started its journey right from the inception of the college in 2001. At that time, only B.Sc (Pass) course were taught in the college.

At present the Department consists of one full time, one SACT faculty members. The teaching-learning methods employed are in the form of classroom lectures, audio-visual mode using power point presentation as well as practical classes. The theoretical papers in the UG course consist of different specialized segments of Chemistry such as, Organic, Inorganic, Physical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Computational and Analytical Chemistry. We believe in holistic development of the students’ beyond the classroom teaching.

Department of Chemistry – Vision & Mission

VISION

• We envision our students as excellent engineers, not only in the field of science and technology, but also in good citizenship and discipline.

• Our commitment lies in producing comprehensive knowledge seekers and humane individuals, capable of building a strong and developed nation.

MISSION

• To achieve the vision we should have diligent faculty who use effective teaching methodologies. To impart updated technical education and knowledge.

• To groom our young students to become professionally and morally sound engineers.

• To reach global standards in production and value based living through an honest and scientific approach.

PROGRAMME OUTCOMES

PO 1. Critical Thinking:

Acquire the ability to apply the basic tenets of logic and science to thoughts, actions and interventions.

Develop the ability to chart out a progressive direction for actions and interventions by learning to recognize the presence of hegemonic ideology within certain dominant notions.

Develop self-critical abilities and the ability to view positions, problems and social issues from plural perspectives.

PO 2. Effective Citizenship:

Learn to participate in nation building by adhering to the principles of sovereignty of the nation, socialism, secularism, democracy and the values that guide a republic.

Develop and practice gender sensitive attitudes, environmental awareness, the ability to understand and resist various kinds of discriminations and empathetic social awareness about various kinds of marginalization.

Internalize certain highlights of the nation’s and region’s history. Especially of the freedom movement, the renaissance within native societies and the project of modernization of the post- colonial society.

PO 3. Effective Communication:

Acquire the ability to speak, write, read and listen clearly in person and through electronic media in both English and in one Modern Indian Language

Learn to articulate analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of situations and themes in a well- informed manner.

Generate hypothesis and articulate assent or dissent by employing both reason and creative thinking.

PO 4. Interdisciplinarity:

Perceive knowledge as an organic comprehensive, interrelated and integrated faculty of the human mind

Understand the issues of environmental contexts and sustainable development as a basic interdisciplinary concern of all disciplines.

Develop aesthetic, social, humanistic and artistic sensibilities for problem solving and evolving a comprehensive perspective.

PROGRAMME SPECIFIC OUTCOMES (PSOs)

PSO 1: Understand the fundamental concepts, principles and processes underlying the academic field of chemistry, its different subfields (analytical, inorganic, organic and physical), and its linkages with related disciplinary areas/subjects.

PSO 2: Demonstrate procedural knowledge that creates different types of professionals in the field of chemistry and related fields such as pharmaceuticals, chemical industry, teaching, research, environmental monitoring, product quality, consumer goods industry, food products, cosmetics industry, etc.;

PSO 3: Employ critical thinking and the scientific method to design, carry out, record and analyze the results of chemical experiments and get an awareness of the impact of chemistry on the environment and the society.

PSO 4: Use chemical techniques relevant to academia and industry, generic skills and global competencies, including knowledge and skills that enable students to undertake further studies in the field of chemistry or a related field, and work in the chemical and non-chemical industry sectors.

PSO5: Undertake hands on lab work and practical activities which develop problem solving abilities required for successful career in pharmaceuticals, chemical industry, teaching, research, environmental monitoring, product quality, consumer goods industry, food products, cosmetics industry, etc.

PSO 6: Understand safety of chemicals, transfer and measurement of chemical, preparation of solutions, and find out the green route for chemical reaction for sustainable development.

PSO 7: Create an awareness of the impact of chemistry on the environment, society, and development outside the scientific community.
