At the outset, the dean, Prof. Pradeep Bhatnagar welcomed all the members of the BOS.
Prof. R. K. Bansal chaired the session. The syllabus for the MSc Chemistry is considered for discussion. Initially all the members discussed about the credit template, scheme of examinations, title of papers and practical papers. Suggestions made after the discussion are-
- Change in the Credit template was proposed. It was suggested to keep the credits of all the semester almost equal. Respective modifications were suggested. Major change in the credit of the dissertation of MSc Sem IV i.e. reduced from 20 to 10.
- A change in the scheme of the examination was proposed. It was suggested to merge Research methodology paper with Seminar CHY 227. Respective change in the scheme of examination of this paper was suggested.
- Dr Tanmoy Chakraborty suggested incorporating Course out come and programme outcome. He also suggested to use the references in two sections- Text books and suggested readings.
- In laboratory course, a new paper was proposed on laboratory safety for the 1st year students, to improve laboratory awareness. It was proposed to include it as compulsory paper. In laboratory course it was suggested to use micro kits. There are some suggestions for the shuffling of the content. Particularly for Seminar, it was suggested to use language laboratory for Seminar.
- Some other suggestions are as follows-
- It was suggested to introduce some new papers.
- Modifications in the title of some papers were suggested.
- It was suggested to remove green chemistry content from Environmental and green chemistry paper and the title of the paper was changed to Environmental chemistry.
There after all the members were dispersed in three groups- Inorganic, Organic and physical according to their respective fields. The discussion continued in groups on the next day. After lunch all the groups assembled and discussed the suggestions. The meeting ended with a vote of thanks.
