The Department of Industrial and Physical Pharmacy at Purdue University provides academic and research opportunities for graduate students interested in pharmaceutics as a scientific career.
Pharmaceutics is a discipline that encompasses the different areas of industrial pharmacy, including the development of small-molecule pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals, pharmacokinetics/biopharmaceutics, and physical pharmacy. The broad spectrum of research interests in one academic department, combined with research projects that integrate the physical, chemical and biological sciences, provides the graduate student with an unparalleled opportunity to work in an outstanding intellectual research environment.
Over the years, students with undergraduate degrees in pharmacy, biochemistry, chemistry, chemical engineering, and the biological sciences have received their Ph.D. degrees from the IPPH Department. The diverse academic and cultural backgrounds of our graduate students create a stimulating environment for personal as well as intellectual growth. We invite you to join us in our pursuit of excellence.
