I am BPharma final year student. Which is the best course after BPharma - MPharma, PGDM or MBA?

Dear Student,

All of the mentioned courses are good choices after a Bachelor of Pharmacy (BPharma) degree. The best course for you will depend on your what your career goals are after completing the BPharma degree.

• Master of Pharmacy (MPharma): MPharma is a technical course and will give you advanced scientific and technical knowledge specific to the pharmacy sector. MPharma should be your choice of course if you wish to go in the field of research, higher studies or education in the field of pharmaceutical science.

Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM), on the other hand, will lead you on a different career pathway. In both of these courses, you will develop the administrative skills that will help you make a better manager in the pharmaceutical industry. MBA and PGDM will include subjects like Marketing, Accounting, Organizational Behaviour, Human Resource Management etc. They should be your choice of course if you want to go for higher ranks in the pharmaceutical industry.
