About Department

Pharmacognosy

  • About the Department

The Department of Pharmacognosy focuses on unlocking the healing potential of nature. We study the physical, chemical, biochemical, and biological properties of drugs derived from natural sources. Our curriculum provides students with in-depth knowledge of herbal medicines, phytochemistry, and the cultivation and extraction of medicinal plants. Through hands-on laboratory work, our students learn to identify, isolate, and standardize natural compounds, preparing them for careers in the herbal drug industry, natural product research, and alternative medicine.

The department's curriculum is structured to blend theoretical knowledge with practical exposure, enabling students to gain hands-on experience in:

Pharmacology Focus:

  • • Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

  • • Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics
  • • Toxicology and safety pharmacology

The curriculum also includes research projects, industrial training, seminars, and workshops to ensure holistic learning and professional preparedness.
