The Pharmaceutical Society was formed in 1976 to pursue professional and cultural activities. The first batch of graduates came out in year 1977. And due to the demand for higher education, PG courses in two disciplines (Pharmaceutical Analysis and Product Development) were started in two phases from the year 1979. Subsequently, the department was shifted in a new building constructed in Kalabhavan premises.The department has received, apart from initial block grant from the Govt. of Gujarat, development grants from UGC during V to VIIIth plans, which were utilised in updating the laboratories and library with equipments, necessary machineries, books and periodicals.
At the insistence of Govt of Gujarat, short term training course was organised during 1982-84 to impart training of diploma level to the practicing pharmacist of the state not holding degree or diploma in pharmacy. This helped the state of Gujarat in meeting with the requirements of Section 42 of the Pharmacy Act which provided for minimum qualification for the practicing pharmacist.
Several research projects sanctioned by the agencies like UGC, CSIR, DST, BARC, DAE, ONGC, ASRC, Alembic and MSU were undertaken and successfully operated by the department.
