Program Description The Department of Industrial and Molecular Pharmaceutics (IMPH) at Purdue University provides academic & research opportunities for PhD 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 PhD 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 PhD degrees from the IMPH Department. The diverse academic and cultural backgrounds of our PhD students create a stimulating environment for personal as well as intellectual growth. We invite you to join us in our pursuit of excellence. IMPH is 1 of 3 departments within the College of Pharmacy. There are about 55 PhD students enrolled in the department. Postdocs and Visiting Scholars further enrich the department’s intellectual atmosphere. During the first semester on campus, each PhD student, with the support of the faculty, identifies a major professor from among the graduate faculty of the department. The curriculum of each PhD student is then determined jointly by the graduate student and his/her major professor. Each Plan of Study (POS) is designed to achieve the PhD student's overall educational objective. In addition to departmental courses, each PhD student's POS typically includes courses in physical, organic, and analytical chemistry, mathematics, statistics, biochemistry, and chemical engineering. One year of calculus at the undergraduate level is required.
