What is the scope of Pharmaceutical Engineering from IIT (BHU)?

Pharmaceutical Engineering is a branch of pharmaceutical science and technology under which the development and manufacturing of products, processes, and components in the pharmaceuticals industry take place. It is only recently that this subfield of pharmaceutical engineering has emerged as a desperate engineering discipline. It’s very important to stay updated with modifications in pharma as it helps you to adapt to change, avail new opportunities, and focus on developing futuristic skills. Basically, this discipline involves much more than just the composition and quality of drugs. It also focuses on engineering aspects of how a drug is produced. Here are a few points pertaining to its current scope in India

• The core placements are very low given the fact that Pharmaceutical Engineering and Technology is more research-oriented and not job oriented. 
• The initial packages in core placements are very low in comparison to the IT sector but as time passes the payment gradually increases.
•  If you feel your tug towards coding, then you are always free to opt for non-core Placements. 
• You will find many batchmates who identify their interests in coding, artificial intelligence, mechanics, data analytics, etc., and inculcate the skills necessary to pursue it.
• The diverse clubs run by the students of IIT BHU make it easier to acquire skills relating to your passion. 

The pharmaceutical engineering branch is growing at an exponential rate resulting in huge research opportunities guided by the most qualified professors.
