Contribution to national health and the pharmaceutical industry
The primary aim of the College of Pharmacy is to train specialists who not only study and use pharmaceutical theories and practices but also have utmost ethical standards and a spirit of service to the society. With the advent of the wellness trend, the college has shifted the curriculum from provider-oriented to consumer-oriented education. All of the graduates will be able to meet the needs of the national and local community in the field.

Pharmacy deals with the theories and practices related to the development, production and application of medical products for the cure and prevention of disease. The Department of Pharmacy aims at providing specialists, who can apply pharmaceutical theories and practices to the use and development of medicinal products. Graduates will find opportunities as pharmacists that provide medicinal products and services for patients, and as professional pharmacists in public health-related institutes. Also, employment as industry pharmacists will be found in pharmaceutical companies that develop, manufacture and distribute drugs. Major courses of the Department of Pharmacy include clinical pharmacy, hygienic pharmacy, pharmacology, clinical biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, theoretical pharmacy, antibiotics, pharmaceutical microbial chemistry, pharmacotherapeutics, analysis in pharmacy, pathophysiology, herbal drug, etc.
Career OpportunitiesThe employment rate is close to 100%. Graduates may work as pharmacists(in pharmacies and hospitals) or find jobs at pharmaceutical companies (R & D, manufacturing, quality management, etc), national laboratories, and the public health office.
