In 1965,the Department of Pharmaceutical Technochemistry and a master's course were added to the school and this was followed by a doctoral course in 1970. The faculty's major aim is to train pharmacists and graduates are qualified to take the national pharmaceutical exams. While most graduates go on to become pharmacists, many also continue to engage in research. All the students of this faculty study general biology, biochemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, other life-science related subjects, pharmaceutics, medical treatment and hygienics.
Most graduates tend to work in hospitals.
Students of the Department of Pharmaceutical Technochemistry receive the basic training required to become pharmacists. These basic courses are supplemented with studies in organic and physical chemistry to give students an understanding of drug production and quality control. A relatively large number of graduates of this department build careers in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
