The Department of Pharmacology was established under the guidance of Head of the Department by Dr.S.Basalingappa in the year 2006. Since then Experimental pharmacology laboratory, Clinical pharmacology laboratory, Department museum have been established. Our Department library contains all pharmacology related books for undergraduates, postgraduates and also for nursing students. Animal House was established in the year 2005. Recently Pharmacovigilance unit has been established for reporting of adverse drug reactions. Computer Assisted learning was implemented in the year 2017.

Academics
Undergraduates
The department is training MBBS students, B.Sc. Nursing in both theoretical and practical aspects of pharmacology. The students are taught using various teaching methods like lectures, seminars, small group discussion, tutorials. Students trained in experimental pharmacology by Computer assisted learning (CAL) with the help of Animal simulator software purchased from Elsevier Company and implemented from November 2017. This helps to reduce use of animals for experimental purpose as per the guidelines of the Animal Ethics Committee.
We have expert faculties who are involved in the academic activities of UG students.
