Research Profile
Chemistry department has broad canvas of research activities competing basic as well as applied research and contributed significantly by publishing research papers. synthetic chemistry, Green Chemistry, Solvent Extraction, Coordination Chemistry and Nanotechnology are the areas of intense research in the department. Presently eight Ph. D research student working under the guidance of Dr. R. V. Shejwal, Dr. C.P. Mane and Dr Avinash Nalawade while three students have completed their Ph.D. from the department.
The department has published about 70 research papers in national and international journals having high impact factor. The three indian patents have also been published. The faculty and students of the department have presented papers in various conference, symposia and workshop. Some of them have achieved best presentation awards in the same. The student from our department have actively participated in the AVISHKAR competitions.

From the last five years the department has achieved significant goals in various fronts. It was really satisfying that department has received funds 4.5 lakhs for individual MRP projects from UGC New Delhi. Recently one faculty members have applied for MRP to UGC, New Delhi.
The department will endeavor to remain at forefront of basic science in important thrust areas by the vision, imagination, knowledge and sustained hard work will progress rapidly in academic, teaching and research activation planned for near future.
