About the Advanced Credit Program

Chandigarh University’s Passion to Profession through Advanced Credit Program offers a unique pathway for bright and inquisitive young minds to develop their career by enjoying their passion. This specialized certification program is offered to UG and PG students seeking admission to Chandigarh University. Besides pursuing their passion, the students will earn University credits while developing the primordial knowledge and skills for the program to which they are interested in taking admission. This program comprises three distinct levels, each tailored to provide students with a progressive and comprehensive learning experience.

Significance of Earning Academic Credits

Obtaining credits in specific courses implies that a student has exhibited proficiency in those subjects. Consequently, they might be exempted from retaking those courses or have the opportunity to progress to more advanced levels directly. This minimizes the required number of courses, enabling them to concentrate on other subjects or explore additional courses. Advanced earned credits streamline a student's academic path, potentially reducing the duration needed to finish their degree or program. It lessens the student's time and energy commitments, allowing them to allocate those resources to other subjects and dedicate more time to prepare for job placements.

Advanced Instrumental Techniques -1

Apply Now

Introduction to the Course

Instrumental methods of analysis have exploited several basic properties of matter such as light absorbance, electrical conductivity, phase transition, molecular vibrations and selective adsorption of certain species, etc to develop well defined streams such as spectroscopy, chromatography, thermal analysis and electrometric methods. The analytical scientist should constantly upgrade his or her analytical skills, update on basic and avoid the pitfalls of becoming a mere technical operator of analytical instruments. The course, “Advance Instrumental Techniques” offered by Department of Chemistry, University Institute of Sciences, Chandigarh University, builds on student’s existing background in analytical chemistry to develop both theory and practice relating to the latest instrumental techniques used in industry and research. This course aims to impart in depth knowledge with hands-on experience using state-of-the art instruments like UV-Visible, IR spectroscopy and 1H and 13C NMR Spectroscopy, GC, HPLC etc. along with theoretical background. The course is designed to train students in use of advanced high end instruments like UV-Visible, IR spectroscopy and 1H and 13C NMR Spectroscopy, GC, HPLC etc for chemical, biochemical analysis of real samples which are amongst the most widely used analytical instrumental techniques across a broad range of disciplines and in many different industries. The course strongly emphasizes employability in industry, government and research.

What Students say about the Program


I am sincerely thankful to Chandigarh University for the invaluable opportunity to participate in the ACP Level 1. This program has significantly enhanced my skills in e-trading, web designing, and data visualization. The e-trading module provided me with a comprehensive understanding of online trading platforms, market analysis, and effective trading strategies, empowering me to navigate financial markets confidently. In the web designing course, I acquired essential skills in creating and managing websites using the latest technologies and principles of user experience design and responsiveness. This knowledge has enabled me to develop both functional and visually appealing websites.

One of the most transformative experiences of my academic journey was taking cooking and baking, a class that perfectly aligned with my passion for cooking. From the moment I enrolled, I knew this class would be special, offering a deep dive into a field that has always fascinated me as I am always fond of Cooking. Cooking and Baking was an immersive course focused on the knowledge of cooking, learning great cooking techniques and making practical use of it. The class format combined engaging lectures, providing a comprehensive understanding of cooking. Each session was an opportunity to explore new concepts and apply them in the kitchen. Throughout the course, I gained a profound knowledge about types of foods, recipes and much more. One of the most memorable assignments was making Fish Besara which is a famous dish in my state Odisha. This project not only allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge but also sparked a deeper interest in cooking.

Participating in the Advanced Credit Program was instrumental in my academic success. It provided me with the opportunity to challenge myself with college-level courses, preparing me for the demands of higher education. This experience not only enriched my knowledge but also instilled in me the skills of time management, critical thinking, and independent study—skills that are crucial for future academic and professional endeavors. I am proud to have excelled in the Advanced Credit Program and look forward to continuing my journey of academic excellence.
