The introduction of Chemical Engineering in India as a distinct branch of engineering dates back to 1921 with the help of Acharya P.C. Roy and under the academic leadership of Professor H. L. Roy and Professor Baneswar Das, a course of study was offered for the first time at the Bengal Technical Institute, the predecessor of Jadavpur University. This department is one of the oldest departments in Chemical Engineering in the World. The department commemorated Diamond Jubilee in 1982 and Platinum Jubilee in 1996.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vision :

To provide education and training in chemical engineering science and practice for developing competence to meet the challenges of cutting-edge research, of emerging high technology in the CPI and of the demands of society at large.

Mission :

To inculcate advanced chemical engineering knowledge to enable students to

(a) translate fundamental discoveries in high technology areas to commercial exploitation,

(b) adapt readily to the challenges presented in a diverse range of industrial sectors that can benefit from process engineering approaches, and

(c) utilize experimental and computational skills in pursuing research projects of industrial and societal relevance.
