Preface

The School of Chemistry made its beginning in 1977 as a Research Department of Madras University Post

Graduate Center. On creation of Bharathidasan University in 1982, it became a part of the new University and

was upgraded as a School of Chemistry in 2004. It consists of Department of Chemistry, Centres for Bio-

Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry and has now acquired a prominent position in the academic map of

India. The School consists of 6 vibrant faculty members (inclusive of two UGC-Asst. Professors), one

Professor of Eminence, 2 Guest lecturers, 2 administrative staffs, 50 research scholars including M.Phil.

scholars and 80 PG students. All faculty members have obtained their Ph.D. degree from the well reputed

Universities/Institutes with significant years of Post-Doctoral experience in various frontier research areas

which includes Synthetic organic chemistry, Metal mediated organic synthesis, Bio-inorganic chemistry,

Organometallic Chemistry, Green chemistry, Crystallography, Coordination chemistry, Structural Inorganic

chemistry, Nanochemistry, Photophysics, etc., The School has produced 180 Ph.Ds (till 2019) and published

near about 1000 quality research papers in peer reviewed journals with more than 15,000 citations and

cumulative h-index of 63 till date. One of the strengths of the School is the well-accredited Autonomous Post

Graduate teaching program based on the popular Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). We are proud that our

collective enthusiasm has generated a good number of excellent and world-class chemists, now occupying

important academic and industrial positions in India and abroad. UGC and DST recognized our research

potential and financially supported to built infrastructure and sophisticated instrument facilities through their

UGC-COSIST, UGC-SAP, DST-FIST and DST- PURSE programmes.

All the faculty members have undertaken sponsored research projects funded by various national agencies

such as UGC, DST, CSIR, DRDO, SERB, MoEF, BRNS and have successfully completed more than 50

individual research projects. Also, two Indo-French (IFCPAR) international collaborative research projects

have been completed. MoU signed with E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, USA. Several

conferences, workshops, refresher courses and other academic programmes have been organized. Several

international, national and state level honours and recognitions such as Fellow of the Indian Academy

Sciences (FASc, FNA), INSA visiting fellowships, CRSI medals, Tamilnadu Scientist Awards (TANSA) have

been received by the faculty members. Many international exchange visits regularly taken up by our faculty

members and research scholars improve the quality of teaching and research programmes of the school.

Overall, we believe that quality teachers can penetrate through the young minds to create the brave new world.
