Overview
The Advanced Training Program on Drug Development and Analysis is a comprehensive 15-day summer school designed to provide in-depth knowledge and practical exposure to the key stages of drug discovery, formulation, and evaluation. Aligned with the vision of National Education Policy 2020, the program emphasizes experiential learning, skill development, multidisciplinary education, and industry integration to enhance the employability and competence of pharmacy students.
The curriculum covers essential aspects of drug development, including preformulation studies, formulation of solid and liquid dosage forms, and evaluation parameters for quality assurance. Participants will gain practical experience with advanced analytical tools such as UV-Visible spectroscopy and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), along with an understanding of calibration, validation, and data interpretation.
In addition, the program introduces regulatory requirements, including ICH guidelines and quality control standards followed in pharmaceutical industries. Sessions on research methodology, scientific writing, and data analysis are incorporated to strengthen research aptitude in accordance with outcome-based education principles advocated by NEP 2020.
Through a combination of expert lectures, hands-on laboratory sessions, case studies, and mini-projects, the program fosters critical thinking, innovation, and problem-solving skills. By the end of the training, participants will be well-prepared to pursue careers in pharmaceutical industries, research and development, and higher education, contributing effectively to the evolving healthcare and pharmaceutical sector.
