The Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) in chemistry is an advanced, research-focused program  that prepares individuals for careers in academia, industry, or government sector. This program typically involves an in-depth study on any chosen area in the domain of chemistry and requires scholars to contribute, to the field of chemistry through their original research. It opens up diverse career paths and equips the graduates with the skills needed for professional roles in their careers. The first six months of the program is dedicated to coursework, designed to provide a strong theoretical foundation to research along with common subject-based topics. Scholars are then allowed to choose their own research area based on their interests. The Department of Chemistry comprises of faculty with expertise in diverse areas, including materials chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemistry, organic synthesis, food technology, energy storage and production, computational chemistry, molecular recognition, and liquid crystals.

Scholars will be assigned a faculty supervisor, with whom they will work closely to design, develop, and execute their research projects. Research may involve experimental work, computational studies, or a combination of both. Research progress is evaluated  by a research advisory committee comprising the supervisor and two faculty members with expertise in the subject area, through regular meetings, presentations, and written reports. Ample opportunities for professional development, such as attending conferences, workshops, and presenting research findings, are available. Scholars are often encouraged to gain teaching experience, usually through serving as teaching assistants. They are expected to adhere to high ethical standards in their research, including proper conduct and honesty in data handling and reporting. Ph.D. graduates are well trained to take up teaching/research positions at colleges and universities or work in research and development wings of pharmaceutical, chemical, and biotechnology industries.

The two-year (four semesters) Masters Programme in Chemistry (specialization in Organic/ Analytical/ General/ Materials Chemistry) aims at providing a comprehensive study of various branches of chemistry to develop a critical and analytical approach to all major areas of the subject. The program typically builds upon the foundational concepts learned at the undergraduate level and allows students to specialize in a particular area of chemistry.

The various courses in the first two semesters are presented in such a way as to give the students a harmonious view of the subject followed by the specialization courses of organic chemistry along with an industrial/institutional project in the third semester. Equal importance is given to both theory and practicals. The teaching methodology includes lectures, demonstration, seminars, projects, and presentations.

CHRIST (DEEMED TO BE UNIVERSITY) offers a BSc degree in Physics, with combinations in Chemistry. It fosters a deep understanding of physics's vital role in daily life, nature, and societal advancement. Students gain a solid foundation in core science concepts, practical skills, 

and technology integration, preparing them for careers in physics and allied industries. The curriculum encourages interdisciplinary training, teamwork, and hands-on learning, providing a strong foundation for success in the ever-evolving field of physics.
