We welcome you to the 19th edition of the Chemistry In-House Symposium (IHS2026) to be held on 28th August, 2026 in P.C. Saxena Auditorium. The symposium highlights ongoing research activities in the department and provides a platform for exchange of ideas among research groups. Over the years the symposium has seen a phenomenal growth in the number of oral and poster presentations. In the recent years, the department has introduced student flash presentations to increase the student participation and involvement in the program. We look forward to your active participation in the symposium.
