Best Practices
- Implementing micro-sale experiments to minimize hazardous.
- Eco-Conscious Practices: Replace hazardous reagents with safer alternatives (e.g., using dilute acids in place of concentrated acids in certain experiments) and promote energy and water conservation within the lab.
- Industry Alignment: Bridging the gap between theory and industry by inviting field experts and hosting seminars, workshops and training programmes.
- Maximizing natural laboratory lighting to reduce overall energy and water footprints.
- Anuual Update of the syllabi to reflect real-world job market trends and provide career counseling in classes.
- Organizing student-led outreach programs in local schools to popularize chemical sciences and build scientific temper at the grassroots level.
- Training the students on high-end analytical instruments.
- One-on-One Support : Maintaining strong teacher to student ratios to implement formal Mentor-Mentee and Peer learning to boost critical thinking and analytical skills.
