Pharmaceutical engineers are involved in the process of creating pharmaceutical drugs and therapies from their conception and design to production. They also look after the quality and regulation of the products. They save lives not as front liners, but work behind the scenes to make sure the medicines get to the hands of the patients that need them.

There are a lot of electives that you can opt for while studying a major degree course in Pharmaceutical Engineering. Most of the colleges give you this option from 2^nd year onwards of your BTech course. Some of the elective options are Computational Drug Design, Evaluation of Natural Drugs, Advanced Industrial Unit Processes, Fluid Handling, etc..

You can take up any of these as per your interest and inclination. Elective subjects are usually meant to give you an option to explore and experiment to see which particular subject area interests you more within your chosen field.

The BTech/BE Pharmaceutical Engineering course syllabus is the perfect combination of core subjects, elective choices, hands-on practical training via lab work, and project work in the last year. You need to study some core subjects in each semester, as they give you a solid base for the pharmaceutical field, allowing no room for customization.

For the elective subject choices, you can pick up subjects that you find intriguing, explorative, easy to navigate through, and aligned with your career plans, if any. This gives you some scope for customization.
