As part of our sustainability commitment, the University will integrate one Green Chemistry module into the undergraduate curriculum by enhancing the existing Environmental Chemistry course. The module will incorporate the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry, sustainable laboratory practices, renewable feedstocks, waste minimization strategies, and environmentally benign chemical processes. This integration will equip undergraduate students with a strong foundation in sustainable chemistry and the practical skills needed to address contemporary environmental and industrial challenges.

Chemistry Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.), Industrial Chemistry Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

Coming soon.

Short-Term Goals

Integrate a Green Chemistry module into the undergraduate Environmental Chemistry course.
Incorporate the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry into lectures, laboratory exercises, and student projects.
