The Faculty has close scientific contacts with leading educational and scientific centres of Russia, such as M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University, Dorodnicyn Computing Centre and Steklov Mathematical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Employees and post-graduate students of the Faculty defend their dissertations in Armenia and also in mentioned above centres in Russia. The Faculty has scientific contacts with the Trier University, Germany. Lots of the graduates are working in different countries in the fields, where computers are used, that is academic and research institutes, universities, state and government organizations, banks, companies with IT profile etc.   Chemistry tutoring was launched at the university in 1921. It was realized owing to the newly opened Chair of Chemistry, where S. Ghambaryan, A. Hakobyan, L. Rotinyan and H. Akunyan started their activities, directed to the welfare of the Armenian nation. Dean of the faculty, specialist of agro-chemistry P. Kalantaryan and the Rector of that time specialist of biochemistry H. Hovhannisyan have also made their significant contribution in this area. The joint Chemistry department was managed by Professor S. Ghambaryan for many years. Being scientific since the inception of its existence, it became famous for its research in the field of organic chemistry, where the main scientific orientation was the research of the reaction of superoxide amines, which has continued successfully to this day. Other research is realized at this faculty, such as on plants producing ether oils. In 1927 the joint chair was divided into two chairs – those of Organic and Physical Chemistry. The Faculty of Chemistry was formed as a separate faculty in 1933. Professor Grigory Ter-Ghazaryan became the faculty Dean in 1934. Since 1933 a new specialization has been offered on the basis of the Faculty of Chemistry – that of Chemistry and Environmental Protection, and since 1994 – a specialization in Pharmaceutics. Criteria of school educational projects of Chemistry and manuals are discussed and worked out at this faculty. This faculty is an internationally recognized scientific center. The faculty has established strong relations with leading foreign scientific centers: USA-Northwestern University (Evanston), Arizona University (Tyson), University of California (Davis), Germany-Rostock, Munster, Karlsruhe, Regensburg, Bochum universities, England-University of London, Birkbeck College, Italy-University of Bologna, France- Paris-Sud University, Montpelier University, Agrarian Institute of France, Poland-Silesian University (Katowice), Maria Curie Sklodowska University (Lublin), Russia-Moscow State University, RF Institute of Elementary Organic Chemistry (Moscow), Institute of Organic Chemistry, Institute of Chemical Physics, Institute of Structural Macrokinetics, Institute of Human Brain (Sankt-Peterburg).
