Inorganic Chemistry is a branch of chemistry that focuses on the study of chemicals that do not contain carbon as an essential part of their structure. This specialty deals with chemical elements and compounds that include metals, non-metals, industrial materials and metals, in addition to chemical reactions and the physical and chemical properties of these materials.

Fields of study of inorganic chemistry:

• Metals and Minerals: Study of the chemical and physical properties of metals and minerals, including their uses in industries and technology.
• Industrial Materials and Chemical Processing: Develop industrial materials, such as glass, ceramics, and plastics, and study manufacturing and chemical processing processes.
• Biochemistry: The study of biochemical reactions involving basic elements such as metals in biological systems.
• Analytical Chemistry and Chemical Analysis: The use of chemical techniques to analyze and characterize inorganic substances.
• Nano chemistry and Nanomaterials: Applying chemistry to developing nanomaterials and understanding their properties and multiple applications.

Objectives of studying inorganic chemistry:

• Understand the structure and physical and chemical properties of inorganic materials.
• Develop new and sustainable applications for inorganic materials in various industries.
• Searching for and developing new materials that interact with their environment in a beneficial and effective way.
• Using chemical techniques to analyze and determine the physical and chemical properties of materials.

Job opportunities for inorganic chemistry graduates:
