About the Department

The history of the Department of Chemistry at S.H.D. College dates back to 1980. It started with a general undergraduate degree course and other science departments under the University of Calcutta. The department offers three year undergraduate (UG) general degree courses with combinations of physics and mathematics or with botany and zoology. Class sizes are small, providing a good bond for faculty-student communication and academic flexibility. Faculty members engage with the modern research theme of chemistry, and students are always welcome for their curiosity about modern chemistry.

Scope of the subject

  • Teaching job (SSC)
  • Banking
  • Miscellaneous job (State and Central Govt.) 
  • Chemical Company 
  • Administrative job
  • Research career (After master's degree)

SWOC analysis of the department

Strength

  • Research-experienced, motivated faculty members 
  • Well-equipped library with a sufficient number of books and laboratory facility
  • Individual care is taken due to the limited number of students in the department 

Weakness

  • Poor communication skills in both verbal and written the students 
  • Shortage of technical staff member

Opportunities

  • To brighten the careers of students
  • Keep on advising communication and other skill development programs
  • To train and counsel students to become more employable 

Constraints

  • More dropouts due to taking admission to technical courses
  •  Insufficient feeder school 
  • No industry or employable assets nearby 

 

Future plan

  1. To visit different research laboratories for a growth of interest in the subject and a better understanding of the same.
  2. To renovate the present laboratory to a research-oriented one.
