Message
It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to the Department of Chemistry at AKS University, Satna. Our department proudly offers a comprehensive academic pathway through B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. programs in Chemistry. All the programs are designed and implemented in alignment with the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) framework under the Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS), in accordance with the NEP-2020 guidelines.
We are committed to academic excellence and research-driven innovation. With well-established infrastructure and dedicated laboratories, our faculty ensures a strong foundation for quality education. We aim to create a supportive environment that promotes both effective teaching and advanced research opportunities for students.
Our department is host to the Centre for Green Chemistry and Sustainability, a unique interdisciplinary research platform that serves not only our faculty and students but also encourages collaborative initiatives with other departments and nearby institutions. This center is also actively engaged in eco-friendly paint production and sustainable product development, showcasing our commitment to real-world applications of chemical science.
The department takes pride in its academic achievements with 7 Ph.D. degrees awarded and 3 patents granted. Our team comprises well experienced teaching faculty members and supportive non-teaching staff, working collectively to nurture scientific curiosity and professional growth among students.
We remain dedicated to fostering a dynamic academic culture where innovation, sustainability, and excellence intersect. I invite aspiring chemists and researchers to join us in this exciting journey of learning and discovery.
