Overview

    The 2-year D.Pharm program at SIST is a practical, career-oriented diploma aimed at equipping students for various roles within pharmacy services. The curriculum encompasses critical subjects like pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmacology, dispensing practices, and pharmacy law & ethics. Supported by the School of Pharmacy’s infrastructure—such as well-stocked libraries, training through the campus hospital pharmacy, and industrial MOUs (e.g., with ICON Life Sciences)—students gain hands-on experience in medication handling, patient counseling, and pharmacy operations. Graduates are well-prepared for roles as pharmacy technicians, hospital pharmacists, or medical representatives.
