Course Overview

Traditional inorganic and classical organic chemistry’s amalgamation leads to the emergence of modern chemistry. Organometallic Chemistry forms a significant part of this subject, and this course teaches all about it, from its fundamentals, vital concepts, stepwise mechanisms to real-time procedures and applications. 

The Organometallic Chemistry certification syllabus also explains how metal’s catalytic amounts can produce numerous molecules in massive quantities that are significant in our daily needs, pharmaceuticals, natural products, drugs, etc. This four-week training is a core-learning program, falling under the ‘Chemistry’ purview. While there are no minimum admission criteria, the course is built at the UG-level. 

An IIT Bombay offering, the Organometallic Chemistry online course is widely-recognized by almost all pharmaceutical industries since it deals with relevant concepts. Candidates wanting further career assistance can also opt for Swayam’s offline test to receive the program certificate. Carrying NPTEL and IIT Bombay’s logos, this accreditation will pose a significant catalyst in pursuing lucrative job profiles.

Certificate Qualifying Details

Furthermore, there are two criteria that aspirants must fulfill to obtain their Organometallic Chemistry certificate. For this, they must register and undertake Swayam’s proctored offline evaluation and submit all their in-course assessments. 

Firstly, 25% marks of their top three assessments (out of four) will be calculated for the final score. In this, they should score at least 10/25. Secondly, 75% of their examination score (out of 100) will also be evaluated for the final marking. Here, students must obtain 30/75 or higher. By meeting these two criteria and scoring 40/100 or more, learners can gain the Organometallic Chemistry certification.
