Welcome to a world full of new possibilities!

Artificial Intelligence is one of the fastest growing fields of scientific research. It has enabled automation of human tasks/decision-making, given insights into the working of our own brains, and made existing systems more efficient. The improvement in the quality of life that automation has brought is undeniable.

In the world of tomorrow, human and artificial intelligence will come together to hopefully augment the life of every human being. From self-driving cars to housekeeping robots, life is being made simpler and better by automating cheaper cognitive tasks due to the advances in the field of AI.

Also, for much more cognitively complex tasks such as medical diagnosis or financial analysis, AI-aided systems help people get more accurate results in lesser time than a non-AI system would have afforded. Instead of worrying that AI will take their jobs, people should be getting excited that they will soon be able to do their jobs through intelligent systems or in collaboration with intelligent agents. The collaboration between human and AI should help reduce each other’s errors, ushering in a new era of work. Augmenting human intelligence, especially creativity and decision-making with the help of automated systems presents a completely new way of living life itself.

Come. Join and Discover the hidden potential.

Principal, Faculty of Pharmacy

It is my pleasure to introduce the Faculty of Pharmacy at Marwadi University, Rajkot. Currently, it offers programmes at Under-Graduate (B. Pharmacy) and Doctoral (Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences) level. After the recognition of Faculty of Pharmacy department at Marwadi University by Pharmacy Council of India, our faculty is poised to make enormous strides in meeting specific needs of both students and the community, exploring new frontiers in drug discovery, development, pharmaceutical sciences, and translational clinical research. Being a constituent department of Marwadi University, providing the highest standardsof education has been our constant endeavor. The department prepares thestudents to face the challenges of today’s world and to meet the demands ofthe pharmaceutical field. In order to make the students competitive and at par withtheir international counterparts, we have well-equipped laboratories, outstandinginfrastructure,and qualified, experienced & committed faculty. Excellent library facility is our key feature for deeper academic progress andlearning.

The department is always focusingon personality development of students, which not only enhance their learningof theories and concepts as a part of academics, but also improves theircommunication skills, gives them industry exposure, and provides an opportunity to gain hands-on skills, etc. We are committed to delivering the best of thelearning facilities and environment to the students.

We welcome your comments and suggestions for the improvement of pharmacy education and research.
I invite you to travel with us towards a very illuminated future.

E-Cells conduct several activities such as workshops, interaction with successful entrepreneurs, building prototypes, setting up small campus companies where other students can be your customers, internship opportunities with outside companies etc. in order to cultivate the below skill set among the students:

• Organizing skill: Since the E-cell is typically run by the students, they learn how to organize various activities from end-to-end. This requires them to coordinate with different stakeholders, bring consensus among them and align them to chase the single goal.
• Team building skill: Any activity requires multiple individuals support to execute it successfully. Students learn to find the right person for the right job. They also learn to trust their team member and encourage them to finish the tasks. They also understand that to achieve any goal, they need to take their team along. In a real entrepreneurial journey, as they say, a Class B idea with Class A team is better than Class A idea with Class B team.
• Sales & Marketing skill: This is one quality that every entrepreneur must learn. The college campus company activity allows the students to sell their products or services to the customers in real time.
• Convincing Skill: To achieve success in your entrepreneurial journey, you need to learn to take your team along and this essentially requires lots of convincing skill. The e-cell activities provide an excellent platform to hone this skill.
• Relationship building: In order to execute the events, a student has to liaison with various college departments/authorities and get things done from them. Hence relationship building becomes very critical for success.
• Sponsorship, Knowledge about compliance: Students have to run pillar to post to get the necessary permission & approval from the management to organize the events. They cannot break the rules and work within the constraint. This experience equips as it is similar to various compliance related work that an entrepreneur requires to do during the startup journey.

E-Cell also signed the MOU with Viridian ESpark Ventures Accelerator and Noida to support and coach the student-driven Start-ups enrolled under E-Cell.E-Cell has also dedicated a nodalcenter with all the basic facilities. Students can use the center even after working hours.
