Masters in Pharmacy

First year M.Pharm:

Advanced Pharmaceutical Chemistry: deals with the reaction mechanisms involved in the synthesis of various drug molecules.

• Different chapters deal with the formation, structure, stability, stereochemistry, reactions and rearrangements with evidences.
• This subject not only train student in necessary skills involved in the synthesis of drug molecules in the laboratory but also develop competence in the synthesis of newer molecules and emphasis has been laid on novel methods of synthesis like combinatorial chemistry.

Medicinal Chemistry- I

• The subject deals with the various basic molecules useful in designing the newer compounds for the treatment of the different disease conditions.
• Ability to master the different techniques used in synthesis of the drug molecules.
• Use of information technology tools to carry out research
• Update his/her knowledge by self-study and by attending the advanced courses, conferences and seminars in drug design.

Medicinal Chemistry II
The subject Medicinal Chemistry-II deals with the compounds of both synthetic and natural origin, useful as medicinal agents.
The program of study deals with the history of development of drugs, their classification, medicinally active principles, their formation, isolation, identification and suitable bio-chemical modifications.
This subject not only train the student to learn in detail about different biological constituents of plants and to study their biosynthetic pathways but also train the student to isolate and identify the different principles from plant source.
Modern Pharmaceutical analysis.
Pharmaceutical analysis is an interdisciplinary subject. It involves study of the theoretical principles, instrumentation and applications of various instrumental analytical methods useful for the analysis of drugs, pharmaceuticals and chemicals. Modern Pharmaceutical analysis have become the backbone of experimental chemistry, and the latest development in the area is related to innovation in the fields of electronics, generation, transduction and display of signals. Instrumental analysis may be both qualitative and quantitative in nature. The most important instrumental methods of analysis include GC,HPLC, UV/Visible, IR, electrophoresis & electrochemical methods. The subject covers varied fields of chromatography and these methods are useful in identification, characterization, spectral studies, functional group analysis, and quantitative estimation of chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

Second year M.Pharm:
