पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This program targets a small number of highly motivated students who seek to combine pharmacy education suitable for professional licensure with advanced research-based training in pharmaceutical sciences. Students completing this program will earn consecutive dual degrees, the Pharm.D. and the Ph.D. Students in the dual track are afforded early acceptance into the Ph.D. program and, if they successfully complete the Pharm.D. curriculum, a modified graduate curriculum will be tailored to shorten the total time required to complete both degrees. Students must meet the admission requirements of both programs and apply to the Ph.D. program in the spring semester of the second professional year as they complete the B.S. in Pharmacy Studies. In this program, medicinal chemists investigate the structural features responsible for the biological activity of drug molecules. To this end they design and synthesize new potentially active drugs. They also study the molecular mechanisms of drug action using biophysical methods and focusing on the stereo electronic features of the drug and its interactions with its site of action. As a means of exploring the mechanism of drug action, they also study the target biopolymers through which drug activity is induced. Furthermore, they are interested in modifying drug structures to assist in targeting and to facilitate transport. Although their major concern is with chemistry, medicinal chemists must be also familiar with the pharmacological and biochemical systems on which the drug molecules act.

Students must hold a baccalaureate degree or its equivalent from a regionally accredited college or university with a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 for the entire undergraduate record or a grade point average of at least 3.0 for the last two undergraduate years. Students should have the test of English as a foreign language (TOEFL) minimum overall score of 550 for the paper-based test, 213 for the computer-based test, or 80 for the internet-based test is required or International English Language Testing System (IELTS), applicants need an average overall band score of at least 6.5. Only the scores from the academic module, not the general training module, are applicable.
