CHEMISTRY
OUR APPROACH
The chemistry department works on a wide range of research topics that are relevant to the region's unique environment, resources, and challenges. They may collaborate with other departments and stakeholders to address pressing issues and contribute to the sustainable development of the Caribbean.
1
Researchers in the chemistry department may work on developing environmentally friendly chemical processes and products that minimize waste, reduce energy consumption, and lower the use of hazardous materials. This can involve designing new catalysts, materials, and synthesis methods that support sustainable development in the Caribbean.
GREEN CHEMISTRY
2
Researchers may focus on developing and characterizing new materials with applications in various industries, such as energy, construction, and transportation. They may explore materials with unique properties like high strength, lightweight, or resistance to corrosion that can withstand the harsh environmental conditions in the Caribbean.
MATERIAL SCIENCE
3
The chemistry department may engage in educational and outreach activities to promote the understanding and appreciation of chemistry among students, teachers, and the general public. This can include organizing workshops, seminars, and public lectures, as well as participating in community-based projects and events.
