Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm) · JIET Universe
Two years, one dispensing counter, real prescriptions from day one.
A two-year diploma with hospital pharmacy exposure at JMCH and Medipulse—the only hospitals in Jodhpur handling kidney transplant, cardiac, and neuro cases, which means the prescriptions you learn on are as complex as pharmacy practice gets. Taught by experienced faculty with qualifications such as B.Pharm, M.Pharm, Pharm.D., and Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences, who bring academic, clinical, research, and practical pharmacy expertise into the classroom.
Why here
Six things that make the two years count
Not a list of amenities—the specific things that change what you can do by D Pharm.
A Rare Level of Super-Specialty Hospital Exposure for D.Pharm Students
Real-time postings at JMCH and Medipulse Hospital provide students with practical exposure to IPD (In-Patient Department), OPD(Out-Patient Department), and clinical floor pharmacy services. Students observe prescription and medication-chart review, medication reconciliation, drug-interaction and adverse-reaction monitoring, safe dispensing, patient counselling, and medication adherence practices. They also gain exposure to medication management in specialised areas such as kidney transplant, cardiac surgery, and neurosurgery, helping them understand the pharmacist’s role as part of a multidisciplinary healthcare team.
Faculty with Academic, Clinical & Research Expertise
Taught by experienced faculty members with qualifications including B.Pharm, M.Pharm, Pharm.D, and Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences, bringing strong academic knowledge, clinical exposure, research experience, and industry-oriented expertise into the classroom. Their practical understanding of pharmacy practice helps students connect theoretical concepts with real-world applications in hospitals, community pharmacy, clinical pharmacy, research, and the pharmaceutical industry.
Research-focused institutions
JIET Hospital & Cancer Research Centre (JMCH) run active clinical research alongside patient care, so you're trained inside institutions that publish, not just treat.
Hands-On Hospital & Clinical Pharmacy Exposure
Learning goes beyond the classroom through hospital postings, laboratory practice, prescription review, dispensing, medication counselling, case-based learning, and exposure to patient-care services. This helps students connect pharmaceutical theory with real-world hospital and clinical pharmacy practice.
Multiple hospital training, not one
Experiential Learning & Professional Exposure
The college regularly conducts and participates in activities such as Pharma-Anveshan, CPR and First-Aid Training, World Pharmacists Day, National Pharmacy Week, expert lectures, awareness programmes, community outreach activities, health and social-awareness initiatives, visits to social-care institutions including orphanages, educational visits to AFRI and CAZRI, and industrial visits to pharmaceutical manufacturing and healthcare-related facilities.
Where you'll train
Two teaching hospitals, one level of care you won't find elsewhere in the city
JMCH and Medipulse Hospital aren't just placement partners—they're where JIET's own leadership treats and researches the cases most Jodhpur hospitals have to refer elsewhere, and where you'll learn to dispense for them.
