INDUSTRIAL VISIT FOR B.PHARM FINAL YEAR STUDENTS (2021-2025)- DECEMBER 2024
In December 2024, Princeton College of Pharmacy organized a highly informative and educational industrial visit for the final year B.Pharm students (2021–2025 batch) as part of their practical exposure to the pharmaceutical industry. This visit was aimed at providing students with a real-world understanding of industrial processes, regulatory practices, and technological advancements in pharmaceutical manufacturing. The students visited a reputed pharmaceutical manufacturing company, where they were welcomed by the plant’s technical team and taken on a guided tour of various departments including production, quality control (QC), quality assurance (QA), packaging, warehousing, and research & development. The visit was carefully planned to align with their academic curriculum, allowing students to connect their classroom learning with actual industrial operations. During the visit, students had the opportunity to observe Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), standard operating procedures (SOPs), and equipment used in formulation and quality testing. The industry professionals provided valuable insights into the regulatory standards followed in the pharmaceutical industry, as well as current trends and challenges. A Q&A session allowed students to clarify their doubts and interact with experts from various departments. The visit greatly enhanced the students’ understanding of batch manufacturing records, equipment validation, quality parameters, and compliance protocols, all of which are essential for a career in pharmacy. Students were encouraged to take notes and submit a detailed report summarizing their observations and learnings from the visit. Such industrial visits are an integral part of the academic experience at Princeton College of Pharmacy, providing students with the practical exposure necessary to become competent professionals. The December 2024 visit was a meaningful and enriching experience that helped students bridge the gap between theory and practice, preparing them for the professional challenges ahead. Ask ChatGPT
