About Program
Pharmaceutical Chemistry is concerned with design, synthesis, structure elucidation, analysis, metabolism, structure activity relationships, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of novel therapeutic compounds. Pharmaceutical Chemistry is a scientific discipline that takes place under the division of Professional Pharmaceutical Sciences in Faculty of Pharmacy. This graduate program offers opportunity to develop skills and do advanced theoretical and practical scientific studies in the direction of scientific and technological developments in this field.
Goals
This program aims to educate pharmacists with philosophy of doctorate degree on design, synthesis, qualitative-quantitative analysis, the relationships between chemical structure and biological activity, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions of novel therapeutic compounds. Besides knowledge about advanced organic chemistry reaction mechanisms, media optimization in drug synthesis reactions, quantitative structure activity relationships is given. It is also aimed to raise the new academic staff for the university and also to gain specialist pharmacists in research, development and production processes in the pharmaceutical industry and qualified pharmacists to provide services in drug quality control laboratories.
Summary of Program Outcomes
Besides having information about the new drugs of present and future and their properties has knowledge about design, synthesis, alternative synthesis methods, classical and instrumental qualitative-quantitative analysis, structure elucidation, stereochemical and physical properties, biotransformation, pharmacokinetic and pharmacokinetic profiles, the relationships between chemical structure and biological activity of new biological active compounds. Gains skills about scientific research, planning scientific research and evaluation of their results, senior management, preparing and application of projects in Pharmaceutical Chemistry field.
