I Need A Brief Orientation On The Course CHEMISTRY by Spiff20(m): 11:37am On Sep 27, 2014
Dear nairalanders, i just got admitted into the department of Pure and Applied chemistry in unical and i need a little orientation about the course, the job opportunities availabe in the field and the difference between pure, applied and industrial chemistry. What they gave me is pure and applied chemistry to study, so i want to really know what am going in for. Thanks in anticipation for your responses.

Chemistry is Beautiful, Explore and It recreates Nature, Just Be Focus On The Course and I assure you , you will be proud to be a Chemist** Regarding to where you can work in future**You can work anywhere

Though Not really an easy course,but once you graduate with good grades,employment will be looking for you.

As if u know ma mind @OP..just got admitted into OAU to study CHEMISTRY also
Re: I Need A Brief Orientation On The Course CHEMISTRY by Spiff20(m): 1:03pm On Sep 27, 2014
Tanx guys, but i wanna know, is there any difference between applied chemistry and industrial chemistry or are they the same thing?

In regards with my HOD told me...Industrial Chemistry is just a branch of Chemistry I.e we have physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry as an Applied Chemistry I can study Industrial Chemistry or any branch of chemistry as my Masters

I can work anywhere by studying Chemistry or Industrial Chemistry? Snc I can work anywhere, can I work in a bank, in the police force etc?

what if you recruit as a police is that not working,even in the bank,i have seen a geology graduate working in a bank so what are you saying.
Re: I Need A Brief Orientation On The Course CHEMISTRY by bdemix(m): 2:17pm On Sep 27, 2014
Very well sir,is nt by what you studied you've been employed in this country**Hope my 2 cents helps sir

Well chemistry is a nice course,it is more than just about chemical reactions. Like my hod would say "chemistry is the nucleus of all other courses",chemistry is very versatile and wide there's hardly an aspect you won't explore be it petrochemistry,forensic, medicinal and other unknown branches of chemistry. Chemistry is more than a subject as many Nigerians view it, chemistry is the central science.
The Manufacturing industries also requires the services of a chemist,even in Academics we are needed...

........ What is not chemistry, virtually nothing....

keep on deceiving yourself, physics is the fundamental. Consider molecular phy,atomic/nuclear phy, chemical phy,mordern phy etc

Let me add that you go suffer small. Many things dem dey teach dey abstract. You go learn alcohol tire tgen u go end up for community secondary skool Ikot. Excrpt God help u. No believe me at your own peril.

Chemistry will open your eyes to a lot of things that have been like mysteries to u but if you want to do well work on your maths and physics cos those borrowed courses are the ones that give problem especially calculus then as you further you have to learn reaction mechanism what you get if you substitute a molecule of atom in a reaction as well as the electronic configuration of all the atoms in the periodic as well as their physical and chemical properties then you will be introduced to quantum mechanics like my lecturers used to call it then the science of God.





Courses to fear

Analytical chemistry
physical chemistry

courses for cramming
Organic chemistry

Natural product
Course to get easy A

Inorganic chemistry

my opinion though

Lemme add my own before its too late,....Chemistry is a wonderful course,it studies virtually everything both living n non living,..
You can actually work any where so far there is human being,from petrochemical industries to production industries as quality analyst even in agricultural firms...Chemistry is actually a diversify n demanding course which requires a lot of hard work and smartness,buh a 2nd class upper div will put u on a gud stand.
In studying chemistry u tend to do sum compulsory courses from other dept like calculus,mathematical methods(In mths dept)material sci,modern physics,waves n optics,thermodynamics in physics dept,especially in your 2 n 3 level in the uni.
Though am studying biochemistry in AAUA,we do sum courses in chemistry like analytical chm,physical chm,inorganic chm,organic etc and they are kinda tough esp the first three..Thus,welcum to the world of reaction,which you success in your sojourn to b the grtest chemist....In btw,ur lecturers ain't friendly,they used to gv us headache....



Cheers...

Finally, it's better you studied chemistry abroad. You may be fulfilled as a chemist over there. Big and well funded labs, employment and postgraduate studies likely to be favorable. And finally potential to switch to other fields ie, med chem, pharm chem, chem engr, agrochem, neurochem, biological sci, lab technician, physician assistants,food sci, synthetic bio, bioch engr and esp grad sch to medicine,nursing and pharmacy and vet med.

German Shepherds are one of the most popular dog breeds in the world, and for good reason. They are fiercely loyal, intelligent, and make excellent family pets. But with such an active and athletic breed, it's important to make sure they are getting the proper nutrition to support their health and energy levels. https://germanshepherdbuddy.com/best-food-for-australian-shepherd-puppy/
