Department of Chemistry of Shanghai
Normal University was founded in
1954. Over the development for 50
years, it became one of the great
chemistry departments with the
multiple between-in disciplines, the
strongest teaching staff and the
higher academic level .Nowadays,
department of chemistry is
distributed in two campuses of Xuhui
and Fengxian.
The main undertakings of the
department are undergraduate
education, graduate education
including MS and PhD programs with
the aim of training high level
teachers of chemistry or
application-oriented chemical
talents for Shanghai and the Yangtze
River Delta.
Since 1997, Department of Chemistry
has belonged to the reestablished
College of Life & Environment. The
lab center has affiliated to
department of chemistry since 2004.
Now Department of Chemistry is
composed of 4 majors: Education of
chemistry, Applied Chemistry,
Chemical Engineering and Technology
and Education of Science, involving
in 6 disciplines of Inorganic
Chemistry, Organic Chemistry,
