Faculty of Chemistry
The Faculty of Chemistry was founded in 2017 and began its formal functioning together with two major departments: 1) Organic and Inorganic Chemistry 2) Physical Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Applied Chemistry.
M.Sc. Chemistry courses have been held in Organic and Inorganic Chemistry department since October 1997 and admitted PhD students in Organic Chemistry since February 2003.
At present/currently, the total number of M.Sc. students of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry department is 68 including 46 in Organic Chemistry and 22 in Inorganic Chemistry. Moreover, the number of PhD students is 38 in Organic Chemistry and 27 in Pardis unit. The academic faculty members of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry department include 6 professors, 1 associate professor, and 4 assistant professors dealing with/involving in instruction and research in terms of various topics.
