    Application of Spectroscopic Methods in Molecular Structure Determinat– Chemists are molecule makers.  Whenever a new molecule is synthesized it is essential to determine its structure using spectroscopic techniques.  This course is all about practical applications of spectroscopic methods for the determination of organic molecules.

    Quantum Chemistry– This course deals with the applications of Quantum Mechanics to the problems of Chemistry. This course begins with the fundamentals of quantum mechanics including the origin of quantum mechanics.  The Schrödinger quantum mechanics is followed in this course.

  • Forensic Science (7)

    There are 7 courses covered under this category- Drugs of AbuseForensic ToxicologyFingerprints and Other ImpressionsForensic BallisticsForensic AnthropologyForensic Biology and Serology and Forensic Medicine.

    Drugs of Abuse– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to drugs of abuse. The course will provide an overview of drug abuse comprising of introduction to drugs and their classification, drug abuse and terminologies related to abuse of drugs.

    Forensic Toxicology– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to forensic toxicology. The initiation of the course will be done by giving an overview of the field of forensic toxicology and also a detailed study on classification of poisons. This will subsequently be followed up by a study on various routes of administration and antidotes.

    Fingerprints and Other Impressions– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to fingerprints and other impressions. The main aim of this course is to provide an insight regarding what are fingerprints, how they are formed on the tip of the fingers, the reason they remain persistent over an individual’s lifetime and are individualistic in nature, about the minutiae characteristics, ridge patterns and the well-known Henry’s ten digit classification system.

    Forensic Ballistics– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to forensic ballistics. The course will first provide an overview to this arena starting with the history of firearms and ammunitions and slowly moving on to the classification of firearm into rifled and smooth bored weapons.

    Forensic Anthropology– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to forensic anthropology. So with this view, this course shall be giving an overview to the field of forensic anthropology and forensic osteology wherein how much scope the field of forensic anthropology has will also be taken up in addition to the introduction regarding forensic osteology and its principle.

    Forensic Biology and Serology– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to forensic biology & serology. This course will give an overview regarding the importance and application of field of biology and serology in forensic investigation and will also emphasize general definitions and concepts in addition with the nature and role of forensic biologist in crime investigation.

    Forensic Medicine– This course has been developed for the students seeking in-depth understanding of the concepts related to forensic medicine. The course will provide an overview to the field of forensic medicine and subsequently with this, forensic odontology will also be taken up in detail. This will be followed by a detailed study on forensic thanatology comprising of the study regarding post-mortem interval and forensic entomology as well.
