This document provides information about the Pharmaceutical Analysis course BP102T. It includes the teaching and evaluation scheme, course objectives and outcomes, syllabus overview divided into 5 units, and a sample of previous question papers. The course involves 3 hours of theory, 4 hours of practical and 1 hour of tutorial per week. It is evaluated based on an internal assessment of 25% and external end semester exam of 75% for theory, and internal of 15% and external of 35% for practical. The course aims to explain various analytical techniques like volumetric, electrochemical and gravimetric analysis methods to estimate compounds in pharmacopeia. It covers topics like acid-base titrations, precipitation titrations, redox titr
