India is the future Pharmacy of the world and the future Pharmacy market of the globe. India is the largest provider of generic drugs globally. Indian pharmaceutical sector supplies over 50% of global demand for various vaccines, 40% of generic demand in the US and 25% of all medicine in the UK. Globally, India ranks 3rd in terms of pharmaceutical production by volume and 14th by value. The domestic pharmaceutical industry includes a network of 3,000 drug companies and ~10,500 manufacturing units.
India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceuticals sector. The country also has a large pool of scientists and engineers with the potential to steer the industry ahead to greater heights. Presently, over 80% of the antiretroviral drugs used globally to combat AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) are supplied by Indian pharmaceutical firms.
To support the growing Pharmaceutical industry, it is our duty to prepare students well. Pharmacy diploma holders and graduates are in big demand for opening of medical shops, Pharma marketing, Pharma industries, hospitals and research and development activities. Indian hospitals are now competing with the global ones and creating large avenues for Pharmacists. The Pharmaceutical industry being the largest in the world is providing a variety of job opportunities. Hence, a jobless is almost not found today.
Our institute, though very young, is having energetic and highly dedicated staff members and many of us are highly qualified. We take utmost care of our students. Regular classes, well equipped laboratories and library, transportation facility, hostel facility, are a few of our strengths.To expose the students to the demands of the industry and health care needs, guest lectures by eminent personalities are being arranged. Visit to industries, herbal gardens, exposing the students to entrepreneurship development and creating interest in research and development activities are also planned. Hence, our institute will help the student’s overall development to make them worthy to the nation. I hope god will help us in this regard.
