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.
What should I choose between IITBHU pharmaceutical and NITJalandhar CSE taking branch change at IITBHU into consideration? How tough will branch change be for us as the classes are likely to be online
IIT BHU is one of the top 10 IITs and is renowned for its rich alumni network and effective academic structure. But if you are interested in the CSE field, then opt for NIT Jalandhar. Institutes are equal in providing beneficial classes to students. The branch change is not that easy at II BHU; the competition level is very high, and only 10% of students with a high CGPA get the chance for a branch change. The classes will be conducted offline, which is much better than online classes. You can use the library for more references, and in-person classes are more interactive, which will help you improve your academic performance. So, it is better for you to choose NIT Jalandhar.
How are ceramic, mining, and pharmaceutical engineering at IIT-BHU?
Ceramic Engineering Department :
- About the Department: The Department is pursuing research in the emerging areas of glass, glass ceramics, refractories, electronic ceramic, cement, pottery, and porcelain. Research papers are published in reputed national and international journals. Many R&D projects of this department were sponsored by AICTE, DST, CSIR, and UGC.
- Course Structure:Some specific properties of ceramic materials lay the foundation for many applications in electrical, chemical, and mechanical engineering.
- Placements:Placements are good as the average package is nearly 10 lakhs. Apart from core jobs, students go for jobs in non-core fields like analytics, Management, and Consultancy too. In the 2019 placement drive 43 students from the Ceramic department got placed.
Mining Engineering :
- About the Department:It is one of the oldest and comprehensive mining engineering departments in the country. It came into existence in 1923, as a section of the Department of Geology, Mining, and Metallurgy. This department was one of the first few departments in the country to receive UGC Assistance under COSIST and SAP Programme in 1984.
- Course Structure:The course structure of mining is a combination of courses from mechanical, electrical, electronics, earth sciences, and even computer science departments. Physics and machine knowledge is involved.
- Placements: Placements are usually good. Students are offered both core and non-core jobs. The non-core jobs are usually from finance, marketing, analyst, coding. 85 students got placement from Mining last year.
Pharmaceuticals :
- About the Department:The courses are designed to impart knowledge on various aspects of drug design, development, testing, and safe and effective use of drugs/medicines, including drug delivery systems.
- Course Structure:This program includes subjects like medical chemistry, biology, microbiology, biochemistry, jurisprudence, management, pharmacology, pharmacognosy, technology. The course is pervasive and makes one ready for advancing in the field of medicine despite being an engineer.
- Placements:Top recruiters from this branch include Dr.Reddy's laboratories, Matrix Laboratories, United Health, Evaluserve are regular visitors. Apart from that, students have a lot of options for non-core employment in marketing, finance, coding, analytic, etc. A total of 39 students got placed from Pharmaceutical Engineering.
