Creative Chemistry Clgub [c3]
The Creative Chemistry Club [c3] is the name of the departmental society, has started a new era in the Department of Chemistry, Dr B R Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar (Pb). The Creative Chemistry Club [c3] formerly known as Society of Chemists started in the year 2006 with the efforts of faculty members and students. The driving force behind its establishment is the spirit prevailing in the students, motivated by the teachers. The cherished dream of teachers to establish this society has taken its shape with the cooperation of the student. The society is actively participating in nurturing the student in their interest in the world of chemistry.The Creative Chemistry Club [c3], NIT- Jalandhar is an association if individuals motivated in myriad ways for a common cause to explore and enjoy fields of academic interest in a nonconventional manner. The science of Chemistry is a heady mix of materialistic approaches intertwined with philosophical realizations. We strive to reach a balance between the two and in the process involve the current students, alumni, faculty members and staff in strengthening this platform.
To that end, regular talks and special lectures by the persons of eminence are arranged for by the c3. The best part being that it is open to all and anyone from any background and the person can come and enjoy the recent updates about a field of their choice or come to know about an area itself. The M. Sc. students during their project-work and research scholars can have contacts with the Professors at IISc, IITs, CSIR Labs, IISERs, NIPERs or any other premium Institute and can have a taste of scientific journalism besides raving up the successive issues of the journal of limits which are only but up to their levels of creativity. The strengths of M. Sc. go for Summer training after 2nd semester to various places like IITs, CSIR labs, IISER and in various industries.
The Creative Chemistry Club [c3] is also involved in organizing various events that promote student teacher interaction. This plat-form is organizing workshops, seminar and different competitive functions in Chemistry and materials for furthering our basic goal and allowing ourselves to interact with the best brains of various places.
We have just started to grow as a unit and the developments are being fuelled by a very vibrant team of volunteers headed by ever energetic and highly enthusiastic team of faculty members Dr S.B.S. Mishra, Dr B.S. Kaith, Dr N.C. Kothiyal, Dr Rajeev Jindal, Dr Harsh Manchanda, Dr Sangeeta Obrai, Dr Jaspreet Kaur, Dr Virender Singh & Dr Uma Shanker. We request the denizens of a community emphasized by Science especially our alumni, current students and faculty members to step ahead and contribute to the development of Creative Chemistry Club [c3]. We welcome the innovative suggestions from different corners and people, which will help the club in achieving its highest goal.
