Sir....can u tell me what is the scope in B.Pharma and actually what it include...and other things about this course.

A career in the pharmaceutical sciences is full of opportunities.

R & D (Research and Development): The pharmacy industry is one such industry that thrives on research and development for the research of new drugs, process development, formulation, development, clinical trials and Toxicological Studies.

Analysis and Testing: Analysis and testing go hand in hand with this industry specially in order to maintain a proper Quality control (QC) and Quality Assurance (QA). For the same highly skilled staff is required by companies to handle sensitive analytical dealings and sophisticated equipment.

Production and Manufacturing: The options of working in production and manufacturing are huge. Pharmaceutical and medical devices manufacturing units employ B.Pharm Freshers and experienced persons to look after the daily operations and quality of formulations.

Marketing:. B.Pharmacy freshers are employed in marketing of pharmaceutical products and medical devices as Medical Representatives (MR) . Career growth in marketing depends on the networking ability, knowledge and communication skills

Hospitals & Health care : The pharmacists in the hospitals have a great demand for prescribing a drug Therefore, Pharmacy graduates have important role and can earn attractive remuneration and can occupy strategic positions.

Regulatory Bodies & Govt sector : There are bodies that control and regulate medicines. FDA is the regulatory body that deals with governing and implementing the rules and regulations for the Drug and Pharmaceutical industry. The pharmacist can apply for the posts like Drug Inspector, Asst. Drug Controller, Deputy Drug Controller, Drug Controller of state and finally D.C.I. (Drug Controller of India)

Medical underwriter : After B.pharm you can start as medical underwriter with small company and after getting necessary experience can shift to company paying good salaries.

For those who wanna do something similar to pharmacy like dealing with chemicals, but not deal with drugs then keep on reading this. I have done bachelors of pharmacy in India, and now doing major in cosmetics in Farleigh Dickinson university in NJ, USA. They recognize Indias bachelors of pharmacy degree. This course is taken by both males and females. Theres not much that is required by the university to take admission into this course. We mostly learn about formulation of all types of cosmetics from shampoos to deodorants. The future: You can get jobs in any cosmetics company like Johnsons and john sons, P&G, Loreal. The starting salary is also very good. For more information refer to the link. Hope I helped. If any questions feel free to ask.
