The Pharmaceutical Organic Chemistry Department is one of the important pillars of the college of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Drug Manufacturing – Misr University for Science and Technology, where the department contributes to achieving the vision and mission of the college and the university to prepare an advanced pharmacist who keeps pace with recent developments in the field of the drug industry worldwide. Conforms to reference academic standards, to support acquiring of self-learning skills.

To able to synthesize and develop drugs, mass production economically in the face of the growing numbers of diseases.

To achieve this aim, students are provided with the fundamental principles of different classes of organic chemistry of aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds. In addition, principles of stereochemistry and the relationship between the three-dimensional structure of molecules and biological activity. Moreover, study the processes of identification, preparation and purification of some organic compounds can be used as pro-drugs, and uses spectroscopic tools (infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultraviolet, and mass spectrometry) to elucidate the molecular structure of organic compounds.

This is in parallel with the development of research in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries from raw materials and auxiliary materials through conducting scientific research that contributes to the development and production of new drugs with high biological efficacy and fewer side effects, while working according to specific mechanisms and standards aimed at serving both the environment and society.
