Course Overview
A Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharma) is a short-term undergraduate diploma program typically lasting two years. It is designed to equip students with the necessary knowledge and skills for entry-level positions in the pharmaceutical industry or healthcare sector. The curriculum of a D.Pharma program covers fundamental subjects such as pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmacology, pharmaceutics, pharmacognosy, and pharmacy practice. Students learn about drug composition, formulation, dosage forms, drug interactions, and their effects on the human body. Practical training is a significant component of the D.Pharma program, where students gain hands-on experience in compounding medications, dispensing prescriptions, and understanding pharmacy operations. This practical exposure is often provided through laboratory work and internships in community pharmacies or hospital settings.
