There is a major difference between a BPharm and a DPharm course offered at Saveetha University. Bachelor of Pharmacy is a four-year undergraduate degree course that covers a broad range of subjects, extensive curriculum and more practical exposure. The DPharm course is a Diploma programme with a duration of two years, that covers fewer subjects, limited curriculum and narrow practical exposure compared to BPharm. Another major difference that can be spotted among BPharm graduates and DPharm diplomats is that candidates with a four-year BPharm degree have more opportunities and scopes of jobs compared to DPharm students.
