The Division of Pharmaceutics offers courses of study in the following
areas:
Physical Pharmacy is the study of the physical and chemical properties of drugs and their dosage forms. Also addressed are topics in theoretical/computational chemistry and molecular modeling which enable rational computer-assisted drug modification and design.
Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics involves investigation of the factors that influence the absorption, distribution, excretion, and metabolism of drugs, and the mathematical description of these processes.
Industrial Pharmacy concerns the manufacture and preparation of drug dosage forms and drug delivery systems.
While students choose one particular area of pharmaceutical research, they will be exposed to other aspects of the pharmaceutical sciences.
