The Government College of Pharmacy offers a 4-year B. Pharm program affiliated with Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Bengaluru. Admission requires a minimum of 50% in the 10+2 science stream and 55% in core subjects, based on KCET scores. The tuition fee is around INR 14,000 annually, totaling INR 56,000 to 60,000 for the entire program. Additional costs include INR 5,000 for library, hostel, and lab deposits, with separate hostel charges for boys.
The faculty is experienced, with a focus on practical learning, although some new teachers may lack experience. Placement opportunities are moderate; the college invites companies like Abbott, Lotus, Cipla, and Himalaya, but on-campus recruitment and job fairs are limited. Cipla once offered a 3 lakh per annum package to a few students. Scholarships are offered to students whose parents are not government employees, and the state government provides an additional SSP scholarship.
M.Pharm students with GPAT scores receive a stipend. The average fees range from 12,000 to 15,000 rupees, with an exam fee of around 2,000 rupees, ensuring affordability for most families.
