The pharmacy course admission process is managed by the Directorate of Medical Education, focusing on 12th-grade marks and cut-off scores. Students with higher scores can choose between government colleges in Madurai and Chennai. The course spans four years, divided into eight semesters, and emphasizes Biology, excluding Mathematics. It offers a favorable 1:4 faculty-to-student ratio, with practical classes across three departments: Pharmaceutics, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, and Pharmacognosy. Subjects include various pharmaceutical disciplines. Faculty members are knowledgeable, and exams, held every semester, are manageable with diligent study.
