This programme trains students in the extraction and isolation of compounds from natural sources for medicinal purposes, and prepares them for careers in the pharmaceutical, herbal/ayurvedic, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical industries. The increased demand for standardization and analysis of herbal medications has created a need for trained pharmacognosy professionals, and this programme provides students with the opportunity to research the chemical ingredients found in nature and evaluate their potential for disease treatment.
