Infrastructure

MCOPS, established in 1963, boasts some of the best facilities to promote comprehensive teaching and learning. 

Air-conditioned lecture halls fitted with good audiovisual aids, laboratories, faculty cabins, board room and auditorium give the right ambiance to the college. 

A highly qualified faculty with 68 full-time members are engaged in teaching. The faculty-student ratio is an enviable 1:15, which is better than the stipulated requirement. More than 95% of the teachers hold doctorate degrees and the rest are currently working towards acquiring a PhD. 

The labs in MCOPS are spacious and well equipped. For this, the college has received excellent support from MAHE. Besides, the financial assistance from national funding agencies has helped the procurement of state-of-art equipment for our labs. Expensive instruments such as LCMS-MS, flow cytometer, auto analyzer, zeta sizer, to name a few, are some of the prized possessions of our institution. Labs dedicated to cell culture, molecular biology and formulation development and chemical synthesis account for the significant research contribution from MCOPS. Facilities for herbal drug development are second to none in the country. The Kasturba Hospital facilities are readily available for the pharmacy practice department of MCOPS, enabling the students to learn and practice pharmaceutical care and services. Because of this, the department offers drug information and patient counseling and ADR monitoring services.  The students and faculty have access to the Central Animal Research Facility, which houses several animals for experimental purpose. Some of the animals are specially bred for cancer and drug development programs. The pharmacy management department regularly conducts training programs for our students on issues related to pharmaceutical industries such as drug regulation, sales, and marketing.

Apart from these, the students and faculty have unlimited access to campus facilities such as redoubtable Health Sciences Library, IT services, sports and the newly built indoor complex MARENA, and Kasturba Hospital. Also, the MCOPS students can interact with the students of the 25 other institutions to enlarge their horizons.
