While at Montana, Most of his teaching was involved with renowned Chemical Education specialist Professor Mark S Cracolice’s Peer-Led teaching team in the first-year introductory course or the sophomore-level organic course.</p> <p>Mainul’s research has mostly focused on the creation of pedagogic tools (educational software) to use in teaching aqueous equilibrium chemistry for undergraduate and graduate curriculum for physical and biological science students.  The software and the accompanying 3-D trend surfaces that they generate provide a comprehensive overview of most feasible interactions that can occur in aqueous environment.  These have been featured in the <em><strong>Journal of Chemical Education</strong></em> and at national meetings of the<em><strong> American Chemical Society</strong></em>.<br /><br />Mainul also served 18 months as a member of AQAC (Air Quality Advisory Council) of Missoula City County Air Pollution Control Board, Missoula, Montana, USA. The AQAC is a volunteer council of technical experts, business and industry professionals and citizens-at-large, providing consultation to the Air Pollution Control Board for the purpose of implementing new regulations and policy for improving air quality.<br /><br />Mainul received both B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in chemistry from Jahangirnagar University.M.Sc research involved organometallic cluster synthesis with ruthenium.  </p> </div> <div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="two"> <p>Our manuscripts are mostly designed to publish in the <cite>Journal of Chemical Education</cite> which is the official journal of <strong><em>the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society</em></strong>, co-published with the American Chemical Society Publications Division.
