Hello student Pharm.D is a six-year pre-PhD postgraduate program that deals with the clinical study of drugs and experiments, which further helps treat patients in Pharmaceutical Science. Pharm.D course duration includes 5 years of academic studies and one year of internship for students of doctorate level. Pharm.D job opportunities are available in various fields such as government hospitals, private hospitals, sports authorities, CRPF, academic institutes, drug stores, etc. After completing the Pharm.D course, freshers can work in various roles such as Drug Advisor, Clinical Pharmacist, Retail Pharmacist, Nutritionist, Lecturer, Medical Writer, Drug Writer, etc.

You are not eligible for giving NEET PG entrance exam. And, D. Pharma (Diploma in Pharmacy) is a diploma course after which you cannot think pursue a Postgraduate level entrance exam. After diploma you are only eligible to do a graduation with Pharmacy.

Best of luck

Hello aspirant,

No, unfortunately PharmD students cannot sit for NEET PG. You need to have MBBS/BDS degree to appear for NEET PG. Pharm. D is considered the only doctoral degree that can be obtained in India right after passing 10 + 2 qualification exams.

All the best!
