या कुन्देन्दुतुषारहारधवला या शुभ्रवस्त्रावृता
या वीणावरदण्डमण्डितकरा या श्वेतपद्मासना।
या ब्रह्माच्युत शंकरप्रभृतिभिर्देवैः सदा वन्दिता
सा मां पातु सरस्वती भगवती निःशेषजाड्यापहा

Meaning – Salutations to Devi Saraswati, Who is pure white like Jasmine, with the coolness of Moon, brightness of Snow and shine like the garland of Pearls; and Who is covered with pure white garments, Whose hands are adorned with Veena (a stringed musical instrument) and the boon-giving staff; and Who is seated on pure white Lotus, Who is always adored by Lord Brahma, Lord Acyuta (Lord Vishnu), Lord Shankara and other Devas, O Goddess Saraswati, please protect me and remove my ignorance completely.

श्लोक अर्थ – जो विद्या की देवी भगवती सरस्वती कुन्द के फूल, चन्द्रमा, हिमराशि और मोती के हार की तरह धवल वर्ण की हैं और जो श्वेत वस्त्र धारण करती हैं, जिनके हाथ में वीणा-दण्ड शोभायमान है, जिन्होंने श्वेत कमलों पर आसन ग्रहण किया है तथा ब्रह्मा, विष्णु एवं शंकर शङ्कर आदि देवताओं द्वारा जो सदा पूजित हैं, वही सम्पूर्ण जड़ता और अज्ञान को दूर कर देने वाली माँ सरस्वती हमारी रक्षा करें।

Institute of Pharmacy follows outcome-based education to develop the requisite knowledge, skills, attitudes and habits of students. The purpose of the teaching-learning process at the institute is student – centric. Thus, the institution endeavors to promote student-centered learning.

Each programme has its programme learning outcomes that are derived after consultation with all stakeholders, benchmarking and intensive internal discussions. Then, course learning outcomes are developed on the basis of programme outcomes. The course content and assessment are based on the course learning outcomes. Each programme has mechanisms for the assurance of learning. For example, the rubrics are developed on the basis of course learning outcomes and various assessment mechanisms are developed to assess the level of learning among students. Finally, assurance of learning results in an improvement in the teaching-learning process.

Continuous evaluation of learning is followed at the institute. Efforts are made to measure cognitive as well as applied learning. Project work, quiz, problem-solving exercise, midterm examination, semester-end examination, Laboratory Practical work, industrial training, hospital training, drug store internship etc. constitute the different components of the overall assessment. Tutorials are also a part of the curriculum for one-to-one discussion. Moreover, students are provided feedback on their work to improve their academic performance. To maintain the transparency of the assessment system students are shown their assessed answer sheets and are allowed to discuss their scholastic performance with the faculty.

Project-based learning is another salient feature of the teaching-learning process. These courses are supervised by and students are given sufficient support by faculty to apply their learning in solving practical problems of pharmaceutical science.

Curriculum and course upgradation is a continuous process. Its purpose is basically to enhance the learning of students. Therefore, we modify and upgrade the curriculum and courses from time to time to provide the latest knowledge and skills to our students.
