Department of Chemistry

The Department of Chemistry was established as one of the foundational academic departments in the Faculty of Science, to provide distinguished education in various branches of chemistry. The department focuses on educating and training students in fundamental and advanced principles of chemistry, including general chemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, and other specialized fields that contribute to the understanding and analysis of chemical elements and compounds in nature. The department aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand chemical reactions and processes occurring at the atomic and molecular levels and to apply this knowledge in various industries, including the chemical industry, medicine, the environment, and energy. It also emphasizes the development of research and analytical skills through laboratory experiments and research activities. The department offers academic programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, where students learn to apply chemical concepts in fields such as industrial chemistry, analytical techniques, material preparation, and the development of new technologies for water and energy processing. The department also fosters research collaboration with local and international industries to enhance the application of chemistry in solving environmental and industrial challenges. The Department of Chemistry endeavors to prepare a generation of scientists and engineers capable of addressing complex scientific and technical challenges in various fields of chemistry, thus contributing to the national economy and supporting sustainable development.
