Moreover, the Department of Chemistry established a doctoral program in 1991.
The general aims of this college are to educate and train students to take their
places as professionals in the field of science and engineering and to apply scientific
principles to help meet the different needs of society. We emphasize the knowledge of
science and technology, but we also provide many courses in art and humanities in order
to encourage our students to develop of their potentials well-roundly.
Research programs in the departments attempt to extend the frontiers of
knowledge in various fields with special emphasis on present specific needs of the
country. Research cooperation with government institutes and with local industry is
increasing, thus raising the level of active research done in each department of the
college.
