To achieve the ideal goals, as reflected on Unisba’s vision and mission, students were taught many subjects.  Admittably, majority of  the subjects being taught in Unisba were borrowed from Western knowledge as well. Only a few were taken from Islamic teachings. Among those few is basics of chemistry. In fact, history noted that some Muslim scholars has made significant contribution to develop chemistry.  Jabir Ibn Haiyan, Abu’l-Qasim, Aidamir al-Jildaki, Al-Tughra’i, and Al-Majriti were several  worth to be  mentioned.
