The M.Pharm programs in Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Analysis are advanced-level postgraduate courses that provide in-depth knowledge and practical skills in their respective fields of pharmaceutical sciences.
M.Pharm in Pharmacology:
This specialization focuses on the mechanism of drug action, drug-receptor interactions, toxicology, pre-clinical and clinical research, and drug safety evaluation. Students are trained in experimental pharmacology using both in vitro and in vivo models. The program equips graduates for careers in clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, regulatory affairs, toxicology labs, and academic research. It is a critical area for developing new drugs and understanding how medicines affect the body.
M.Pharm in Pharmaceutical Analysis:
This specialization deals with analytical techniques used for the quality control and assurance of pharmaceutical substances and formulations. Students learn about chromatography (HPLC, GC), spectroscopy (UV, IR, NMR), and validation protocols. It emphasizes regulatory standards (USP, ICH) and analytical method development. Graduates often work in QA/QC laboratories, analytical R&D, regulatory documentation, and pharma manufacturing units.
Both programs include coursework, lab work, seminars, and a mandatory research dissertation, preparing students for both industry and academia.
