Subject Introduction and Features
The Chemistry Department is dedicated to leading students into the microscopic world to explore the composition, structure, and transformation of matter. We emphasize "Hands-on Learning" through a variety of laboratory activities and inquiry-based teaching, fostering students' curiosity and rigorous scientific attitudes. In addition to the core curriculum, we actively integrate STEAM elements, transforming chemistry from cold equations into a key for solving real-world problems.
