Student's Review On Sinhgad Institute Of Pharmacy - [SIOP] Narhe, Pune

The college is very close to my home, takes 20 mins from my home. The year I took admission, it was ranked in top 30 Pharmacy Colleges of India by NIRF 2016. In all the campuses of Sinhgad, the Pharmacy college of Narhe was considered to be the best

The college had good faculty but recently a lot of faculty left. We were following AICTE directed 2015 Credit Based Pattern under the Pune University. The curriculum was blend of practical and theory. Practical were conducted very thoroughly. We had guest speakers as well, mostly concentrated in the last year, atleast two in a month. In Faculties, all the teachers are extremely hardworking. The most impactful being Mr. Amol Bansode the faculty of Pharm analysis and Ms. Trupti Tated for Medicinal Chemistry, Mr Balu Salve and Mr P. Kaldate for Pharmacology and Dr C R Kokare for Pharm. Biotechnology. We had Evs trip in second year. As for the industrial experience, we have one month industrial training compulsory for getting the degree, assistance is provided but it can be improved. As for Industrial visit, college organizes one or two visits per batch, sadly due to the pandemic our batch couldn't go for one.

I have served as an Campus Ambassador intern for International Model United Nations. The process of selection is filling a form of application for the same. If you answer the selection questions appropriately you receive a mail of selection.The profile includes promoting IMUN Conference among peers and bringing rregistration. The stipend is based on the performance.

The companies that visit the campus include MNC like Sun, Cipla, Lupin. The Placement Cell in our college is headed by Mr U Bagul who is very dedicated and makes sure maximum students get placed. This year even in lockdown he arranged interviews from companies like Bajaj Allianz Health Insurance and Nestle. Companies like Episource Ltd have also visited the Campus. The Placement Cell actively conducts soft skill development program for third and final year student to make them work ready

There are plenty of activities that are conducted all throughout the year. Biggest being the Sinhgad Karandak encompassing Cultural Activities, Sports as well as Technical activities. Since two years, we are hosting a college fest Techtonic which hosts seminars and competitions. NSS activities are a must in our campus. Though I wish all could participate but the list of student participating is decided by the faculty. Apart from these, every year our college participate in inter college National Pharmacy Week Competition with active guidance from faculty.

We have one of the best infrastructures in Pune. With a fully functional pilot plant, consisting of Tray Dryer, Vaccum Dryer, Lyophiliser, Ointment Mixing machine. For analysis we have HPLC, IR, Nepheloturbidometer, Colorimeter, Flame Photometer, UV spectrophotometer to name a few. We also have a 8 station Tablet Compression Machine in the College. A fully functional Pharmacology Lab with Rota rod, Photo Actumetre etc
