The pivotal role of the Department of Chemistry in natural science made Rivers State University to capture it in the University logo as the atomic nucleus with orbital electrons symbolizing science. The Department of Chemistry was established at the inception of the University in 1980 with Dr. M.D. Selema as the pioneer head of Department.
Prof. Ndokiari Boisa (FICCON) studied at the Northumbria University, Newcastle, United Kingdom for M.Res in Environmental Science (2005) and PhD in Environmental Toxicology and Human Health Risk Assessment (2013) degrees respectively. Currently serving as the Head of Chemistry Department, Faculty of Science, Rivers State University. He is a Professor of Analytical Method Development and Environmental Chemistry. His current research interest cuts across human risk assessment, method development and toxicology.
