Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by Nobody: 2:47pm On Oct 24, 2014 |
Greatest Chemists in the house I hail thee. After searching for a thread about Chemistry to no avail I decided to create one so as to discuss and learn from everyone. Am a chemistry student in one of the federal universities in the south west, I will be going to 200level when the new session begins so let me say am still a chemist in the embryo. I want to learn to from you guys especially the graduates, how are you guys faring in the labour market considering the versatility of the course, how is postgraduate school like? Hope it's not hard and how did you graduate successfully without difficulty considering the fact that people believe Chemistry lecturers are sadists... In simple English tell me how you fared in school. Lastly,how do you feel to have studied Chemistry? Any regrets? A large percentage of Nigerians know nothing about chemistry, some say it's about selling drugs and some feel it's an ordinary subject which doesn't need to be studied. Scholarship giving bodies hardly recognize chemistry or better still they don't know if it exists,an example is the mtn foundation scholarship which does not list chemistry as a course for eligible applicants. I can go on and on but........... over to you guys 1 Like 1 Share |

chemistry edu are we permitted to come in? |

sseunth:Wow you're welcome Sir, how has exam been? You can share your experience in the department with us too |
Re: Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by Nobody: 9:26pm On Oct 25, 2014 |
thinezy:Thinezy Ma'm can you also tell us about Chemistry Edu? |
Re: Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by sseunth(m): 9:42pm On Oct 25, 2014 |
ikeola6:studyin chemistry is nt easy tho...especially if it s industrial chemistry....cus u wont specialise..u gonna do all d aspects.....and the annoyin thing is that you will be offering 10courses why ur mates in other depts are offering jst 5 or 4 2 Likes |
Re: Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by Nobody: 10:41pm On Oct 25, 2014 |
sseunth:Hmmm in Funaab my senior colleagues offer as much as 13 courses per semester |

My junior Brother was offered adm to study Chemistry. Can someone tell me what's d Course like? |
Re: Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by Nobody: 12:39pm On Oct 26, 2014 |
Well Chemistry is very good course, not easy and quite stressful. It is very versatile and has lots of employment opportunities,you can Google search for careers under Chemistry and you will get more info.... my fellows will tell you More |

ikeola6:it just abt learning chemistry, and how to teach it |
Re: Chemistry( Pure/industrial/ Analytical Etc) Graduates And Students by Nobody: 8:20pm On Oct 26, 2014 |
thinezy:Hmmm how to teach chemistry! Did u choose chem Edu initially?? |

Medicinal chemistry is an aspect I like and I will like to specialize there some day. Medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry are disciplines at the intersection of chemistry, especially synthetic organic chemistry, and pharmacology and various other biological specialties, where they are involved with design , chemical synthesis and development for market of pharmaceutical agents, or bio-active molecules ( drugs). Compounds used as medicines are most often organic compounds , which are often divided into the broad classes of small organic molecules (e.g., atorvastatin, fluticasone , clopidogrel ) and " biologics" (infliximab , erythropoietin, insulin glargine), the latter of which are most often medicinal preparations of proteins (natural and recombinant antibodies, hormones , etc.). Inorganic and organometallic compounds are also useful as drugs (e.g., lithium and platinum-based agents such as lithium carbonate and cis- platin . In particular, medicinal chemistry in its most common guise—focusing on small organic molecules—encompasses synthetic organic chemistry and aspects of natural products and computational chemistry in close combination with chemical biology, enzymology and structural biology , together aiming at the discovery and development of new therapeutic agents. Practically speaking, it involves chemical aspects of identification, and then systematic, thorough synthetic alteration of new chemical entities to make them suitable for therapeutic use. It includes synthetic and computational aspects of the study of existing drugs and agents in development in relation to their bioactivities (biological activities and properties), i.e., understanding their structure-activity relationships (SAR). Pharmaceutical chemistry is focused on quality aspects of medicines and aims to assure fitness for purpose of medicinal products. [citation needed] At the biological interface, medicinal chemistry combines to form a set of highly interdisciplinary sciences, setting its organic, physical , and computational emphases alongside biological areas such as biochemistry, molecular biology , pharmacognosy and pharmacology , toxicology and veterinary and human medicine; these, with project management , statistics , and pharmaceutical business practices, systematically oversee altering identified chemical agents such that after pharmaceutical formulation, they are safe and efficacious, and therefore suitable for use in treatment of disease. 1 Like |

I've not read a graduate's post here. Chemistry graduates (especially those on NL) obviously (from past experience in addition) aren't much enthusiastic OR don't want to comment on their course of study. To graduates of Chemistry (any form) reading this: how really is it? Don't leave us in the dark. |

Ehimenboy: Am graduate of chemistry education. We were encumbered with studying chemistry and at d same time our education courses, we had lots of challenges dealing with this and some other factors...but all the same it's d most beautiful course to study. Physical Chemistry Inorganic chemistry Organic chemistry Analytical chemistry Application of Spectrometric techniques Chemical Kinetics 6 hours practical Thermodynamics 6-hours practical on tuesday 6-hours practical on thursday...of which u must write their reports before 48hours. Heterocyclic and Aromatic Chemistry Bifunctional, Metals & Inorganic chemistry Transition metals Organic Synthesis (Best course) .........and so 1 Like |
