Introduction

As established in 1994, the Symposium has become a major annual event that brings together chemistry postgraduate students and faculty members from all UGC funded institutes as well as some industrial partners to present the most recent progress in chemistry research. The major objective of the proposed symposium is to discuss the most recent advancement in postgraduate research in chemistry, exchange research ideas and foster collaborations and networking. It will offer PG students an invaluable opportunity to interact with the keynote speaker and local faculty members and students in person. The speaker will be present and actively engaged throughout the entire event.
