Department of Pharmacology

The Department of pharmacology has set immense goals to provide Skill, Knowledge, Attitude based learning(AETCOM) to train Under Graduates and post graduates under CBME based curriculum. The department is accomplished to deal with:

• Integrative Learning of pharmacology for Under Graduate and Post graduate Medical students. (lectures/SDL)
  • Case Studies: Teaching-learning, how to Apply pharmacological knowledge to clinical cases. Work through patient scenarios to make informed drug choices and management plans.
  • Interdisciplinary Collaboration: teaching how pharmacologists, physicians, and other healthcare professionals collaborate to optimize patient care
• Demonstration of Clinical pharmacology, Pharmacy preparations and Experimental Pharmacology. Demonstrations of CAL (Computer Assisted Learning) in Experimental Pharmacology.
• UG and P.G. Seminar/PG Journal Clubs/ PG Thesis Writing / Microteaching/ guest lectures.
• Hands on trainings through mannequins. OSCE/OSPE training, through skilled laboratory.
• Assessment and Evaluation:
  • Quiz
  • Regular assessments: Both External and Internal Examinations to test knowledge and understanding of pharmacological principles.
• Department has designated MD pharmacology degree to more than 17 post graduate students and PHD degree to 3 students till now.
