About Program

There are projects, theses and published publications on the preparation of peptide-protein-containing dosage forms and evaluation of their stability properties, development of gene delivery systems, adjuvant vaccine formulations and the examination of the targeting process with in this program. The importance and application areas of biotechnology within the scope of compulsory and elective courses in the department for the purpose of the program, peptide-protein-based dosage form designs, physical properties and stability of peptide-proteins, preparation and quality controls of biotechnological products, biosimilars, etc. Theoretical and practical lessons are given.

Goals

Pharmaceutical Biotechnology holds a very important place in biotechnology that using living tissues and cells (biological systems) to obtain the desired product, to monitor developments in the pharmaceutical industry and pharmacy, to investigate properties, stability and route of administration of pharmaceutical biotechnology products. For this purpose, the aim is to educate a scientific staff in determining the quality controls of biological/biotechnological products in pharmaceutical forms.

Summary of Program Outcomes

1. Knowledge: Provide information of the production of pharmaceutical active ingredients using biological/biotechnological systems and their characteristics, stability, formulation in optimal drug delivery systems, quality control and appropriate route of administration, authorization and validation. 2. Skills: Development of pharmaceutical forms containing pharmaceutical active agent with biological origin and their control, inspection, quality assurance, excipients and drug delivery systems used in production, polymer knowledge. To gain theoretical and practical skills in the authorization and validation. 3. Attitude: scientific thinking about the subjects mentioned in the Purpose section and provide an improved attitude to bring about the realization of the subject by commenting.
