Objectives<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
1. Ensure the implementation of innovative teaching methods and learning practices viz., practical demonstrations, organizing journal clubs, computer simulations, quiz and to conduct group discussions periodically.
2. Encourage the students and faculty to participate in skill development programs, short term courses or MOOC\u2019s for upgrading their knowledge on emerging trends in pharmaceutical technology.
3. Acquiring skills to optimize the formulations with Quality by Design (QbD) principles and developing polyherbal and nutraceutical products.
4. Motivating the students and faculty towards innovative things and taking up mini- projects\/by Govt. funded projects.
5. Encouraging the faculty and students of this institute for undergoing training programs\/seminars \/ workshops\/short term course on advances in pharmaceutical technologies conducting within elsewhere also.
6. To provide financial aid to students and research scholars through earn while you learn (EWYL) scheme so as to meet their personal expenses during studying period.
7. To provide teaching assistantship\/lab assistantship or research assistantship to students for financial help.
8. To mentor and encourage students to become entrepreneurs by using government schemes\/ private partnerships.
9. Engaging in cross sector development activities to create awareness on health aspects in the areas communicable diseases adverse drug reactions, side effects and drug interactions among the masses.
10. Encourage innovative ideas in the development of novel formulations and incubate them to cater societal needs.<\/td><\/tr>
