Primary focus of Pharmacy education in India has been on the pharma industry since its inception. Globalization and increasing western influence have led the Pharmacy Council of India introducing PharmD in 2008, with pharmaceutical care as its primary educational focus. PharmD is the first professional degree, and a prerequisite for licensing to practice as a pharmacist in many countries.
Savitribai Phule Pune University has approved the Course Structure for Pharm. D. (Doctor of Pharmacy) course in the year 2013 and also has approved the syllabus as per Pharmacy Council of India notification for the said course.
SCES’S Indira College of Pharmacy, Pune has started Pharm. D. Post Bacculaueate (Pharm. D PB) program (Intake of 10 seats) in the academic year 2019-2020.

We believe that having established our credentials in the field of education, we need to take our commitment forward through introducing newer and higher avenues for the budding pharmacy students. Our aim is to imbibe the good work practices as well as research culture and professional attitude amongst the student fraternity to make them able and competent to contribute to the ultimate goal of having healthy India.

Language learning is not the same as learning any other subject. It is not confined to writing an examination and getting a degree or award. The four skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking have to be practiced. Being able to communicate well is the most important factor when seeking a placement in a company or institution.Communication involves one’s ability to listen carefully so as to grasp the meaning and to respond in turn with apt words and clarity of pronunciation.
The language laboratory plays an important role in this process.Our Language Laboratory in houses Advanced Pentium Computer Systems and Innovative products such as digital multimedia control, headsets and microphones, the interactive response control, etc. which are very useful for students learning languages for communication. It is very useful for assessing students' speech & provides students with the technical tools to get the best samples of pronunciation of the language.

The laboratory’s collection is designed to assist learners in the acquisition and maintenance of aural comprehension, oral and written proficiency, and cultural awareness. It offers web-assisted materials and videotaped off-air recordings in the target language.
The laboratory provides a facility which allows the student to listen to model pronunciation, repeat and record the same, listen to their performance and compare with the model, and do self-assessment. It gives every learner of any language freedom to learn at their own pace; it is flexible and does not necessarily require a teacher all the time. At the same time, the teacher provides assistance individually and collectively.

"I have been a part of Indira College of Pharmacy from 2013-2017 as a bachelor of pharmacy student. Apart from the excellent staff and research carried out at the college, there are many other extra-curricular activities and experiences to learn from. I will always cherish the beautiful memories with the friends I made and the time spent during the four years journey at ICP. At ICP, you don't feel you are away from home, and I am glad to be a part of such a happy and career-oriented family. Thank you.
Being the first batch of the college, I was always a bit skeptical regarding the teaching processes and overall environment, as we were about to give 5 years of our lives without any guidance of the seniors. But as it turned out, these 5 years were the most amazing academic years of my life. The efforts taken by the faculty for providing a convenient educational experience along with extra-curricular activities was truly immeasurable. They also strived to provide other opportunities to the students by arranging various guest lectures, workshops, and competitions which are really necessary for Architectural learning. I am very thankful to IGI and ICAD to help me chase my dreams and take the first step towards my career.
I am Dina AbdulKareem from final year B-pharmacy. I am from Iraq and it was difficult for me to leave my home. But, when I came to ICP I got a good social environment and faculty are very friendly. They motivate the students when they fall down. The infrastructure is excellent. Hostel provides home feeling. Overall, it’s a good college to start your pharmacy career to become a successful person.
