Chemistry

This discipline is a central science that completes the study of Biology and Physics. This scientific discipline deals with the study of matter and its properties, how substances combine to form a new substance, and the science behind this fusion. The study helps you to understand how chemical reacts during the natural processes with soil, water and air, as a chemist you develop measures to protect livestock and crops, to devise new chemicals to bridge the gap in pharmaceuticals, fuels and hardware components, explore new energy reserves, improve the quality and storage of food items, and your responsibilities goes on as everything we live on directly or indirectly involves a chemical reaction.

Various Major under Chemistry

There are five mains branches of chemistry – Physical Chemistry that fuses the study of Chemistry with Physics, Biochemistry interdisciplinary branch of Biology and Chemistry, Organic Chemistry study of carbon compounds, Inorganic Chemistry - study of inorganic compounds (mostly the ones without carbon), and Analytical Chemistry - study of identifying and measuring the physical and chemical properties of substances based on quantitative and qualitative observations. Other majors include Geophysics, Seismology, Atmospheric physics and dynamics, Forensic Chemistry, Polymer Chemistry, Geochemistry, Agricultural Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Chemistry and more to follow.
