The Department of Pharmacy at Anjanadri Institute of Pharmacy came into existence in the year 2023 with the introduction of Bachelor in Pharmacy (B. Pharm). The students, fresh out of junior college are trained in the various aspects of pharmaceutical sciences and then they emerge as professionals in the field of pharmacy. We believe not only in academic excellence but also in the overall development of our students. The Department of Pharmacy has state-of-the-art infrastructural facilities, digitalized library with a plethora of books, ultra-modern classrooms for flipped and blended mode of Teaching-Learning pedagogy. Highly qualified faculty members provide holistic environment for the better understanding of the basic concepts of Pharmacy and sharpen professional and technical acumen of the students by persistent counselling and mentoring.
Pharmacy is one of the important professions of healthcare which caters to the patient-centric approach of providing pharmaceutical care to the consumers. The main subjects of pharmacy are divided into Pharmaceutics (the science of dosage form design), Pharmaceutical Chemistry (dealing with synthesis, identification and analysis of drugs), Pharmacology (dealing with how drugs act in the body and how they are absorbed, distributed in body fluids, metabolized and excreted out from the body) and Pharmacognosy (that deals with the drugs that are obtained from natural sources).
Students after graduating B. Pharm finds a wide array of options for their employment, viz., in Industry (Production, QC/QA, Microbiology/ Analytical laboratory/ Packaging), Marketing and Sales (Biomedical Devices/ Sophisticated Analytical Instruments/ Medicines), Clinical Research (Clinical Trial Associate/ Pharmacovigilance Associate/ Medical Writer), Drugs Inspector or can become entrepreneur by starting one's own industry or a Pharmacy Store to practice Community pharmacy.
At last, I would conclude with this quote “SERVICE TO PHARMACY IS SERVICE TO HUMANITY”
I wish students all success in their professional and future endeavors!
