PCI instructs colleges to implement new rules & syllabus for B. Pharm & M. Pharm
The Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) has
instructed all the pharmacy colleges to implement the newly introduced syllabus
for B. Pharm
and M. Pharm courses and also submit compliance of implementation of the same
and regulations to PCI by August 1, 2017.
The council has instructed the colleges
running the pharmacy courses to strictly follow the statutory provisions
contained in the rules for B. Pharm and M. Pharm courses for approval under
section 12(1) and 12(2) of the Pharmacy Act, 1948.
The further extension of approval of pharmacy
institutions under section 12(1) and of the universities under section 12(2) of
the Pharmacy Act, 1948 shall depend on the implementation of the B Pharm and M
Pharm courses of study and syllabus prescribed by the PCI.
The PCI has recently come up with the final
notification on M Pharm and B Pharm syllabus with an aim to make the syllabus
of the said courses more of industry oriented by introducing uniform syllabus
for the courses across the country.
The B. Pharm course has been divided into the
semester and M Pharm is credit based semester system. As per the credit based
semester system, certain quantum of academic work viz. theory classes,
practical classes, seminars, assignments, etc. are measured in terms of credits
and the candidate earns credits. The amount of credit associated with a course
is dependent upon the number of hours of instruction per week in that course.
Similarly the credit associated with any of the other academic,
co/extra-curricular activities is dependent upon the quantum of work expected
to be put in for each of these activities per week/per activity.
To address the employment problem faced by
the students, the council will also have a tie-up with the industry for the
recruitment of the M Pharm students. Along with DCGI, the council is planning a
meeting with the industry associations to make them aware of the benefits of
new syllabus as well as to urge the companies to tie-up for the recruitment. It
will also request the industry to provide stipends to the students so that they
are not exploited.
