340 students study at the full-time and correspondence (since the 2001-2002 academic year - part-time) courses.

Among them:
340 full-time students,
329 persons - on the budget basis,
11 persons - on the contract basis.

Major lines of scientific activities of the Faculty:

• Fundamental, Exploratory and Applied Research, Intended for Development of the Scientific Basis of New Materials Creation, Including Nanomaterials, with Predetermined Functional Properties;
• Investigation of Elementary Processes and Mechanisms of Solidphase Thermo-, Photo- and Radiation-Stimulated Reactions in Ionic, Molecular and Ion-Molecular Systems.

The Chemical Faculty is one of leading centers of chemistry in Siberia. The Faculty lecturers and researchers regularly participate in realization of large-scale federal and regional scientific programs, including:

• Federal Target Program "Integration between Science and Higher Education in Russia"
  (A0044, 1999-2001; B0021, 2002-2006);
• Grant Project from the RF President "Leading Scientific School of the Russian Federation"
  (00-15-97368, 2000-2002);
• Grant Project from the International Science and Technology Center (№ 2180);
• Grant Projects of the Program "Universities of Russia";
• Grant Projects from the RF Ministry of Education;
• Grant Projects from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research;
• Grant Project of the Program "Start" (№ 5075).

Depending on the selected specialization, students learn a number of special disciplines and do special practical works. In the course of studies special attention is paid to acquirement by students of skills of scientific research activities, first of all, by engaging students in scientific research, carried out at the Chairs. Subjects of students' term and graduation qualifying papers are usually correlated with the topics of the Chair scientific research papers, providing actuality and importance of the research, carried out by the students. Students yearly present results of their research at the University and inter-university scientific conferences, the most important results being published in scientific press.

There are the Post-Graduate Courses at the Faculty on the specialities:

• Physical Chemistry
• Organic Chemistry
• Chemistry of High-Molecular Compounds
• High-Energy Chemistry

There is the Dissertation Council D 212.088.03 on the specialities:
Physical Chemistry, High-Energy Chemistry.
