What is better b pharm or d pharm ?
Hi,
Bachelor of Pharmacy is an undergraduate pharmacy course and Doctor of Pharmacy is a professional pharmacy doctoral course.
Both the courses have their own significance as B.Pharm is 4 years course where as Pharm.D is a 6 years course. While Pharm.D. focuses on clinical practise and allows the student to get a hands-on experience while working as a pharmacist, B.Pharm. is more research oriented and as mentioned above it focuses on the manufacture of drugs and what new discoveries can be made in this field.
After the completion of B.Pharm, the students can practice as a Pharmacist. Pharmacists will work in industries related to the prescription, manufacture & provision of medicines. And Pharm.D trains students to work in hospital settings, relevant industry environments and to pursue higher degrees or clinical research.
