Pharmacy
Adarsh Vijendra Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (AVIPS), a constituent institute of Shobhit University is a premier institute of pharmacy in the northern region. The institute was established in the year 2006 by NICE society with an aim to provide opportunity of professional education to the needy aspirants of this rural area and to meet the requirements of technically qualified personnel in the area of pharmaceutical manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance, pharmaceutical marketing, research & development, academia, regulatory affairs and administration. The Institute is housed in a sprawling campus with an imposing and most conductive atmosphere with state of the infrastructure and instructional facilities. All the courses of the institute are approved by Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), New Delhi. The institute offers diploma, graduate, post graduate and doctoral courses in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. The institute is actively involved in utility based research vis-à-vis quality education & training through its state-of-the-art infrastructure and dedicated human resources. The alumni of the institute are well placed in academia, pharmaceutical industry and administration. The objective of the institute is to impart quality education and training facilities in the field of Pharmaceutical Sciences and become a center of excellence and also encourage and pursue utility based research in emerging areas of Pharmaceutical Sciences and assist in the better human healthcare. It also collaborates with Pharmaceutical industries and organizations for R & D activities.
Western Uttar Pradesh in Northern India is still an industrially & educationally backward region though there are a large number of educational institutes. Since in general the institutions are lacking research orientation, a need was felt by the University as a social obligation to commence professional, job and research oriented programs, so that the youth of this region could get suitable opportunities of employment or self-employment. Region enriched with technically qualified manpower shall attract business houses to establish industrial units and contribute to its economic growth. The AVIPS seeks to promote and popularize the professional education in the area of Pharmacy, especially in the Western UP.
