The Department of Pharmaceutics at Krishna Institute of Pharmacy strives to offer students a comprehensive education in the field of pharmaceutics. Our department is dedicated to ensuring that our graduates have the requisite knowledge and skills to meet the changing demands of the healthcare industry. Our broad curriculum encompasses topics such as biopharmaceutics, drug delivery systems, pharmaceutical microbiology, biotechnology, and the formulation and development of pharmaceutical products. Our experienced faculty members are dedicated to cultivating a supportive learning environment for students and utilize innovative teaching techniques and state-of-the-art technologies to provide a well-rounded education. The faculty members are also actively involved in cutting-edge research in areas such as novel drug delivery systems, crystal engineering, drug bioavailability enhancement and nanotechnology and encourage students to participate in research projects and publications. Our department is equipped with advanced facilities, including well-equipped laboratories with cutting-edge instruments such as the ATR-FTIR spectrophotometer, Brookfield viscometer, automatic diffusion cell apparatus, cooling centrifuge, lyophilizer, rotary evaporator, stability chamber, and more. In collaboration with industry partners and research institutions, we offer students opportunities for hands-on learning and research experience. Our focus on excellence and innovation is aimed at preparing the next generation of pharmaceutical scientists who will have a positive impact on society. Under the umbrella of pharmaceutics department we are having three post graduate programs namely M.Pharm in pharmaceutics, Regulatory affairs and Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

Our vision is to establish as a centre of excellence in pharmaceutics through pioneering contributions to research and education.
