The department of chemistry was established at the beginning of the academic year 2015/2016. This stemmed from Isra University’s keen interest in the basic sciences as essential to the development of other fields of science. The department has four faculty members who hold Ph.D. degrees in the fields of organic, inorganic, analytical, and physical chemistry. It also has faculty members that have MSc degrees to aid in the basic courses in the department.
Isra University has been keen to prepare advanced educational laboratories for all stages of the bachelor's degree comparable to those in prestigious universities. The bachelor degree study plan is designed to link chemistry to technology, industry, and other sciences, so that the program graduates are well equipped for any line of work they choose to pursue.
