The Department of Pharmaceutics is a place where commitment to excellence in academia, research and development is demonstrated through the productivity and success of our faculty and students. We continue to march with times and our program focuses on expanding the scientific avenues for improving the delivery of drugs and therapeutic agents. We offer a training environment that includes the latest formulation laboratory instrumentation and technologies supervised by experienced teachers and dedicated staff.
The laboratories are engaged with experiments and practicals related to formulation and evaluation of dosage forms including tablets, capsules, liquids like suspensions, emulsions, solutions, cosmetics, etc. for PhD, M.Pharm, B.Pharm and D.Pharm subjects.
