Hello,

No, a student who has passed B.Sc. in Chemistry is not eligible for admission to the Pharm.D. (Post Baccalaureate) program in India.

Eligibility for Pharm.D. (Post Baccalaureate)

The Pharm.D. (Post Baccalaureate) is a 3-year bridge course. According to the regulations set by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), the only eligibility criterion for this specific program is:

• A Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) degree from an institution recognized by the PCI.

The purpose of this course is to allow existing B.Pharm graduates to upgrade their qualification to the Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) level. It is not designed as an entry point for graduates from other science streams.
