Scopes of pharmacy

Hello friends, in our last blog I have discussed about the origin and historical evolution of pharmacy. I have been thinking of discussing about the scopes of pharmacy, mainly, what  kind of jobs are available in the market. Well, frankly, speaking there are various opportunities for the pharmacy students such as in sales and marketing, hospital pharmacist, government jobs, industrial jobs, jobs in academic sections like becoming lecturer or assistant professor in pharmacy institutions etc. In the sales and marketing department, you can go for various posts like marketing where you have opportunity of becoming a medical representative(MR) , or you can be chosen in product management , in training or may be for market research . 

In Hospital Pharmacist post you have to do clinical trials and so other things. This post is also available in government sections. There are different government jobs waiting for the pharmacists like drug inspector, MPSC or RRB. They can go for production, where they can be taken in Quality Control(QC), Quality Assurance(QA) or in drug store departments. They have the way to move on to Research & development sections(R&D) , where they can be related to formulations of drugs , drug discovery, analytical method development, or in NDDS , herbal research or to pharmacokinetics drug metabolism . Biotechnology is very important and well defined part in modern industry and sometimes qualified pharmacists are involved in the processes of genetic engineering or in other processing. There has also a unique way or we can say different and independent way for entrepreneurship. You can become a whole seller in the field of medicine or pharmacy, or you can become manufacturer or supplier. There has also a scope of becoming a consultant. If possible you can earn Pharm D degree to become a licensed physician almost equivalent to a licensed MBBS doctor. I didn’t mention about the money because no one knows or guarantees the exact amount concerning to jobs, because it varies but it’ll be earned decently, I can guarantee it, of course. It will eventually if you hold your patience.
