Kavya Koodalagi's Review On Soniya Education Trust's College Of Pharmacy, Dharwad

REMARKS College has secured National Level Ranking (Rankband 51-75) by NIRF, Ministry of Human Resource Development. And it has also secured 11th rank in Pharma Horizon National Survey of private colleges.

The duration of the course is of 6 years (five years for studies and one year for internship or residency). The six years duration is divided into two phases – Phase I – It covers first 5 years for studying during which students have to go to college and attend classes regularly. Phase II – Its the sixth and the last year of Pharma D. It is the training year during which a student is exposed to actual pharmacy practice or clinical pharmacy services and acquires skill under supervision so that he/she may become capable of functioning independently after college.

SET's College of Pharmacy's placement cell is situated in first floor. Cell has sitting arrangements for about 10 students simultaneously and visual/audio facility is available for the interview process. Mainly placement cell takes extra care of students who are outgoing and hardworking.

The fee demand for Pharma D. is about ninety thousand per year. It can be way too expensive for some of the pockets. They are charging really high. I too agree with that. Not all can afford paying this much.

College organizes blood donation camps for students. It also grants outings and visits to students every now and then for academic purposes. College invites eminent personalities for guest lectures and seminars in the campus.
