Niche Herbal Focus
This program is hyper-focused on natural products and Ayurvedic pharma. Great if you are into herbal drug development and standardization, but not ideal if you want broad synthetic pharma R&D roles.
The verdict
Good fit
DPSRU is NIRF #16 in Pharmacy with strong industry ties to Ayurvedic giants like Dabur and Himalaya. The 70% placement rate and ₹4.8L average CTC are respectable for this specialized niche. However, with only 10 seats and a tightly focused curriculum, it suits students specifically targeting herbal and natural product careers rather than general pharmaceutical research.
