Department of Pharmaceutics

Pharmaceutics is concerned with the strategies by which biologically active compounds are presented to the body so as to elicit an optimal response. Included are the design, preparation and testing of drug-delivery systems. There are two major areas of emphasis found in the current research in the Department of Pharmaceutics.

Department of Pharmacology

The fields of Pharmacology and Toxicology are interdisciplinary biomedical sciences in nature, drawing upon the foundation and approaches to systems physiology, biochemistry, molecular pharmacology, genetics and neuroscience. The primary objective of Pharmacology is to investigate fundamental aspects of molecular bio-regulatory mechanism of the cell, for the purpose of understanding how drugs act and in order to develop new drugs for treatment of disease.

Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry

The Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry is one of the seven academic units in the College of Pharmacy. Its teaching missions include instruction in Pharmaceutical Chemistry to the students of Undergraduate (B.Pharma).
