COURSE DESCRIPTION

The Post Graduate Diploma in Clinical Research (PGDCR) is a specialized program designed to equip students with in-depth knowledge and practical skills in the rapidly growing field of clinical research. As the demand for new and improved healthcare treatments continues to rise, the clinical research industry has become a crucial component of the global pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device sectors. This program prepares graduates to meet the high standards of clinical trial design, regulatory compliance, ethical research practices, and data analysis.

The course offers a comprehensive understanding of the entire drug development process, from the initial discovery phase through pre-clinical research, clinical trials (Phases I–IV), regulatory submissions, and post-marketing surveillance. It emphasizes good clinical practice (GCP), ethics, regulatory requirements, and pharmacovigilance, aligning with both national (DCGI-India) and international (ICH-GCP, FDA, EMA) standards.
