Post Graduation

M.Phil. Chemistry or Master of Philosophy in Chemistry is a postgraduate Chemistry course. Chemistry is the science of matter and the changes it undergoes. The science of matter is also addressed by physics, but while physics takes a more general and fundamental approach, chemistry is more specialized, being concerned with the composition, behavior, structure, and properties of matter, as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions. It is a physical science which studies various substances, atoms, molecules, crystals and other aggregates of matter whether in isolation or combination and which incorporates the concepts of energy and entropy in relation to the spontaneity of chemical processes. The duration of the course is one year and the syllabus for the course is divided into two semesters. The course is widespread importance in education and adjacent to it and it is being provided by many institutes throughout the country.

M.Phil. Chemistry Eligibility

  • A pass in Master's Degree in the Applied Chemistry or Chemistry with a minimum of Second Class securing at least 55% of the aggregate marks or in an examination recognized as equivalent.
