A Bachelor of Pharmacy LEET (Lateral Entry Entrance Test) is a specialized academic program designed for students who wish to pursue a Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharmacy) degree but have already completed a diploma in pharmacy (D.Pharm). LEET allows diploma holders to enter the B.Pharmacy course directly into the second year, bypassing the first year of the program.
The B.Pharmacy program typically lasts four years, but through LEET, students complete the degree in three years by leveraging their previous knowledge from the diploma. The course covers various aspects of pharmaceutical sciences, including pharmacology, medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical biotechnology, and pharmacognosy.
After completing a B.Pharmacy, graduates can work in pharmaceutical companies, retail pharmacies, hospitals, regulatory agencies, and research organizations. They may also pursue higher education or specialized certifications in fields like clinical research, drug regulatory affairs, and pharmacovigilance. The LEET system makes it easier for diploma holders to advance their career in the pharmaceutical sector.
