Vidyapati College of Health & Professional Education, located in Kanke, Ranchi, Jharkhand, was founded with one clear purpose: to train pharmacists who are confident at the bench, not just in the exam hall. The college runs the Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharma) programme under approval of the Pharmacy Council of India, Code 7122.
Our campus houses seven dedicated subject laboratories, a digital library, smart classrooms and a computer lab — all built to give every student direct, repeated hands-on practice rather than occasional demonstrations.
Two-year PCI-approved diploma, with direct pathway to registration.
Purpose-built campus with laboratories, library and seminar hall.
To deliver pharmacy education that is grounded in practice — where every student graduates having personally performed the procedures they will be responsible for in a pharmacy or hospital, guided by faculty who treat teaching as mentorship, not just instruction.
To be recognised as a college whose diploma holders are trusted on sight by hospitals, retail pharmacies and pharmaceutical employers across Jharkhand and beyond — because of the consistency of their practical training.
A note on why practical training sits at the centre of everything we do at Vidyapati College.
"When we designed Vidyapati College, we made a deliberate choice: every rupee spent on infrastructure would go toward something a student could actually touch — a microscope, a distillation set-up, a tablet punching machine — rather than only towards appearances. Pharmacy is a hands-on profession, and it has to be taught that way. Our faculty are instructed to keep lab benches occupied, not just lecture halls. That is the standard we hold ourselves to every academic year, and it is the reason we are confident sending our graduates directly into hospitals, retail pharmacies and pharmaceutical industries."
