Overview
Chemistry furnishes much of the material which is the basis of modern civilization. Chemists are the constant source of innovation for its further benefit. It is hard to imagine any product introduced in recent times that did not require the creative efforts of a chemist at some stage in its development. Abbottabad, with its unique landscape, is the rich source of medicinal plants and rocks containing minerals which are not yet explored efficiently. It is the home to a number of schools, medical colleges, training institutes, etc. Moreover there are large numbers of industries in this region. There is dire need of professional chemist who can work on medicinal plants to evaluate new compounds and materials, devise new and cleaner industrial methods for synthesis and manufacturing, involve in biochemical analysis, forensic science, quality control and Environmental protection. None of this is possible without a strong University education in Chemistry.
