    A candidate is required to put in at least 80% attendance in theory and practical subjects separately.

    The candidate shall complete the prescribed course satisfactorily to be eligible to appear for the respective

    examinations.

    Course of study

    The course of study for B.Pharm I, II, III and IV year shall include the respective Theory & Practical

    subjects as given in Table - I, II, III and IV respectively. The number of hours to be devoted to each

    theory and practical subject in an academic year shall not be less than that shown in Table - I, II, III and

    IV.

    Academic Work

    A regular record of attendance both in Theory and Practical shall be maintained by the teaching staff

    of respective subjects.

    Internal Assessment Marks:

    Theory: Three sessional examinations evenly spread during the academic year shall be conducted by the

    constituent colleges. The average marks of the best two examinations shall be computed out of a

    maximum of 30 marks and shall constitute the sessional award in theory. Provided further the colleges

    may conduct one special theory sessional examination towards the end of the academic session for those

    who might have missed any one of the regular sessional examination on genuine grounds.

    Practical: Students are expected to perform the experiment listed in the respective syllabus. The number

    of experiments is also listed. Marks shall be awarded out of a maximum of 10 to each of the practical

    exercise and an average of those shall be computed out of maximum of 10 marks. In addition, three

    practical examinations evenly spread during each academic year shall be conducted. The average marks

    of the best of two practical examinations shall be computed out of a maximum of 20 marks. A total of 30

    marks shall constitute the sessional award in practical. While awarding the sessional marks for practical

    experiments, the following considerations should be taken into account.

    1. Preparation of the candidate.

    2. Manipulative skills.

    3. Results of the experiment.

    4. Knowledge of the experiment

    5. Viva voce pertaining to the experiments only.

    The college shall maintain the sessional books of the students and the record of sessional award of

    the students. A regular record of both theory and practical class work and sessional examinations

    conducted in an institution imparting the course shall be maintained for each student in the institution.

    Marks shall be awarded as per the schemes given in Tables - V, VI, VII and VIII.

    Conditions under which candidates are permitted to appear for annual university examination

    The candidates are required to score a minimum of 50% marks in each of the subjects (Theory and

    practicals separately) in the sessional examination to be eligible to appear for annual university

    examination in the respective subject.

    1.1 Human Anatomy and Physiology

    THEORY 75 Hrs (3Hrs/Week)

    Scope: This subject is designed to impart fundamental knowledge on the structure and functions of the

    various systems of the human body. It also helps in understanding both homeostatic mechanisms and

    homeostatic imbalances of various systems of the body. Since a medicament, which is produced by the

    pharmacist, is used in various disease conditions to correct the abnormal functioning of the body systems,

    the basic knowledge of this subject is must for a student to understand how drugs act on various

    systems/organs in correcting the disease state of organs/systems. Thus it becomes a prerequisite subject

    for the pharmacy course.

    Objectives: Upon completion of the course the student shall be able to

    Understand the gross morphology, structure and functions of various organs of the human body.

    Understand the various homeostatic mechanisms and their imbalances.

    Identify the various tissues and organs of different systems of human body.

    Perform the hematological tests like blood cell counts, haemoglobin estimation, bleeding/clotting

    time etc and also record blood pressure, ECG, heart rate, pulse and respiratory volume.

    Appreciate coordinated working pattern of different organs of each system

    Appreciate the interlinked mechanisms in the maintenance of normal functioning (homeostasis) of

    human body.
