This document provides an overview of pharmaceutical technology and the pharmaceutical industry in India. It discusses that pharmaceuticals focus on developing novel drugs to treat diseases. India has one of the largest pharmaceutical markets in the world and is projected to rank among the top 10 globally by 2015. Pharmaceutical technology deals with manufacturing drugs and ingredients, requiring a foundation in sciences, math, and chemical engineering. The goal of a pharmaceutical technology degree is to develop professionals for the API and pharmaceutical manufacturing industries. The designed curriculum provides strong backgrounds in engineering, sciences, and introduces subjects related to drugs and the body. Laboratories contain equipment for chemistry experiments, microbiology studies, and formulation development.
