The Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry aims to impart quality education in Pharmaceutical Chemistry. This pharmacy program was tailored so that the students receive a sound knowledge in the aspects of organic, medicinal, and biochemistry. We strive to contribute to a chemically literate society through teaching, scholarship, and service. We provide our students with an enriching array of educational experiences, including hands-on participation in faculty-led research. We deliver expertise in the emerging areas of Drug Design and Development, Documentation/Research writing expertise. The department is also committed to delivering skills in innovative processes for the manufacturing of drug and drug intermediates, API Handling, and Patenting. We have expertise in Custom synthesis of small heterocyclic compounds and new chemical entities (NCEs), Ligand and structure-based drug design, in silico virtual screening, and other molecular modeling techniques. Our broad research areas are Structure-based approaches to drug discovery and computational Modeling of neuroprotective agents against various diseases.
Pharmaceutical Chemistry deals with the chemistry of materials used in medicine or the formulation of a medicine. Chemistry in turn is the study of the structure, properties, and transformations of materials. All three branches of Chemistry, such as Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Biochemistry and Medicinal Chemistry are the components of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, including their qualitative and quantitative analysis. Traditional to advanced methods of analysis of pharmaceuticals are taught here. In the initial semesters, students learn about the structure, composition, and properties of carbon and non-carbon compounds. Midway through the program, they are introduced to Medicinal Chemistry which deals with medicinal properties of chemical substances in humans. In the final semester, students have the option of learning Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR), and Computer Aided Drug Design (CADD) which deals with building new drugs and testing their in-silico activity and toxicity using computer software.
The department is well augmented with relevant scientific equipment and trained teachers to ready students for the dynamic field of the pharmacy profession be it manufacturing or clinical. The department regularly arranges seminars, symposiums, and workshops to expose students and teachers to the latest developments in the field. We organize various co-curricular activities too to ensure the overall growth of the students. Realizing our responsibilities towards the environment, the department has started replacing experiments with green alternatives. The department is committed to delivering skills in isolating drugs from natural sources; their synthetic modification; qualitative and quantitative analysis; impurity detection and quantification; developing newer and greener methods of synthesis and isolation and biological evaluation of the synthesized and isolated compounds.
Mission:
In addition to teaching students about chemicals and pharmaceutical manufacturing, the Pharmaceutical Chemistry Department aims to equip them with the knowledge and practical skills necessary to analyze drugs in pharmaceutical preparations, vital fluids, water, and a variety of foods. Additionally, the department aims to raise the caliber of scientific research in drug control-related fields. Enhancing its involvement in community service is another.
Vision:
The Pharmaceutical Chemistry Department stays abreast of the most recent developments in pharmaceutical analysis and sophisticated analytical equipment in order to efficiently serve the community in the areas of medication manufacture and drug control. The department also reads the most recent issues of scientific journals. Furthermore, the department aims to distinguish itself from other faculty departments in a range of educational fields and to become competent in interpersonal interactions at all levels within the department. The department's goal is to become a center of excellence in chemical science education, research, and basic technology development. Our goal is to supply the scientific community with graduates that are knowledgeable, talented, and competent in a variety of medicinal chemistry research areas.
