Pharmacy

Admission to both the regular and lateral entry BPharm programmes at Chandigarh University is based on the candidate's performance in the CUCET (Chandigarh University Common Entrance Test). Meeting the eligibility criteria is also mandatory.

For BPharm lateral entry admission to Chandigarh University, candidates must hold a Diploma in Pharmacy with at least 50% aggregate marks from an institute affiliated with a university or a state Board of Technical Education, approved by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI).

Yep! B Pharmacy grads can jump into Clinical Research or Pharmacovigilance by joining the right programs. Tons of companies hire fresh grads as drug safety associates, research coordinators, or even medical writers.

Having extra training or certificates in these fields definitely helps. But even without that, B Pharmacy gives you a good base in drug rules, safety, and data analysis—so you're already kinda set for these roles.

Yep! Once you finish B Pharmacy, you can work in hospitals as a registered pharmacist if you've got a license from the state pharmacy council. You'd be helping out in the pharmacy, filling prescriptions, managing drug stores, and even giving patients advice.

You don't need an M Pharmacy for these roles, but if you want to go into advanced clinical stuff or teaching, then an M Pharmacy becomes important.

Both are excellent choices but ultimately depends on what you value. Working for a hospital pharmacy after B Pharmacy entails patient care, dispensing low, dispensing drugs, and counseling on drugs; respectively.

Conversely, the pharmaceutical industry ideally will have one of these positions in R&D, manufacturing, regulatory, or marketing. The hospitals have clinical service capabilities, and, if you enjoy technical or corporate environments, the pharmaceutical industry may suit you better.

Experiential lab training is a fundamental aspect of B Pharmacy as it affords students opportunities to transform theoretical knowledge into real-life applications such as drug formulation, quality evaluation and chemical analysis. 

These lab training sessions solidify students' fundamental skill sets that include precision, usage of laboratory equipment, safety protocols, and documentation. Experimental experiences and industrial trips set students up for levelling in service roles in both research labs, production laboratories, or clinical roles.
