Vision
In the early twentieth century, as modern branches of chemical science were evolving, a few visionary academicians of Odisha made a humble beginning by establishing a separate Department of Chemistry at the then Ravenshaw College. Prof. Atul Chandra Ganguli was the first head of the Department. The teaching was limited to intermediate level for quite sometime until the College moved to its present location and the Department of Chemistry transformed into a full-fledged department around 1922.
