Will My Son Get Placed After B.Pharm at BITS Pilani Hyderabad?

Ans: Hi Manzoor,
No worries.
Let him continue with B. Pharm, and after completing it, he can join Pharm D (PB). This will provide him with a lot of opportunities compared to directly pursuing Pharm D. Additionally if he decides to pursue an M.Pharm instead of Pharm D, he will still have plenty of prospects.
By pursuing Pharm D after a B.Pharm, the candidate will gain more knowledge in MFG and QC, in addition to Clinical aspects.
My best wishes to him for his future endeavors.
Bye for now.

Ans: Hi Faiz,
Greetings.
There is no direct connection between NEET and Pharm D. NEET exams are not mandatory for Pharmacy programs. If your son wants to pursue Pharm D, you should contact the institutions offering the Pharm D course.

My suggestion is that he should complete his B.Pharm first, and then he can pursue Pharm D (PB). This will give him better opportunities compared to pursuing Pharm D alone.

Career opportunities:
a) Clinical Pharmacist
b) Medical Affairs
c) PMT
d) Medical writing
e) Clinical research
f) Medical Scribe.

I hope this helps!

All the best.

Ans: Hi Shrikant,

There's no need to worry. He can choose from some good universities or colleges across India.

Please note that NTA has declared the result and rank, but the cutoff for eligibility to receive a stipend has not been declared yet. If he does receive the stipend, he can join other institutions.
Best of Luck.

Ans: Hi Soumitra,

I hope this message finds you well! I don't have information about which college he is attending, the location, and his economic status. With this information, I can provide better suggestions for career options. However, most students tend to prefer pursuing a post-graduate degree in Pharmacy, with only a few opting for a management course.

I've discussed the career prospects after completing a B.Pharm with other readers, and I wanted to share the information with you for your reference.

After completing a B.Pharm, there are numerous career opportunities available:

1. Industry: Roles in drug and pharmaceutical production/manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, and marketing.
2. Academic: Opportunities as a lecturer in both government and private colleges.
3. Government Jobs: Positions such as drugs inspector and junior analyst.
4. IT Industry: Jobs as a medical scribe or in medical/scientific writing.
5. Pharmacist: Opportunities as a community pharmacist or a hospital pharmacist.
6. International Opportunities: Working as a pharmacist in Gulf countries like Dubai, Qatar, and Oman.
7. Higher Education: Pursuing M.Pharm with over 15 specializations available, Pharm D (PB), or an MBA.

If you could share the additional details, I would be able to offer more support and make further suggestions.
