Hostel The residential life of students is marked by peace, fun and comfort. Realising the importance of the “other two-thirds” of student life away from lecture-room, the institute provides comfortable residential living for boys and girls so that the “critical one-third” is not prejudiced. There are separate hostels for boys and girls. It is equipped with 24 hrs electric facility. Special care is taken to ensure that the food is hygienic and delicious. Transportation The institute has Bus, Sumo and Van facility for the students to carry them in groups from various parts of the city to campus.

From ancient times Pharmacy is known as a branch associated with healthcare services. The word Pharmacy has been derived from the greek word "Pharmakon", meaning drug. Today the discipline of pharmacy has made enormous progress and has matured as a distinctly independent branch as pharmaceutical sciences, mainly through the acquisition of the wealth of knowledge, research and vast array of drugs and therapeutic remedies. Unlike other curricula, pharmacy is a product as well as service related discipline increasing its scope two fold. The drugs and pharma industry is multibillion dollar business. In the rapidly changing global scenario and the implementation of GATT and TRIPS in India, the pharmaceutical industry and professionals will play a vital role in shaping up our national economy. This new decade is, thus, bound to have an ever growing demand of pharmacy professionals not only in the country but even worldwide.
