Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry

Pharmaceutical chemistry is a traditionally accepted as a branch of organic chemistry, the subject has reached a tremendous level of complexity today. It involves many aspects like synthesis, isolation, purification and characterization of anticipated organic compounds that can be used in medicine for the treatment and cure of diseases. On the other hand it establishes a link between chemical structure and biological activity. Medicinal Chemist plays a very crucial role in the design and development of selective, potential, non-toxic, new chemical entities which meet all the desired pharmacokinetic properties. Analytical Chemistry deals with qualitative and quantitative techniques of analysis. The special emphasis is on application in research and in industry. With the aim to explore and elaborate such fundamentals in a systematic manner undergraduate pharmaceutical chemistry department is designed which is comprised of labs devoted to Medicinal chemistry, Analytical chemistry, Organic chemistry, Biochemistry and Inorganic pharmaceutical chemistry. Each laboratory is well equipped with state of the art instruments to give hands on experience to the students.Well qualified and experienced staff is the highlight of this department.Our department is striving hard towards the goal of providing innovative and quality education for students to achieve academic excellence. Our motto is to upgrade the skills and knowledge of our students to enable them to survive best in the competitive world.
