About the Department

The quality of pharmaceutical education is the key to the development of the pharmaceutical industry!

The pharmaceutical industry of Ukraine has a dynamic rate of growth and active development in recent years. The domestic pharmaceutical industry occupies an influential position in the Ukrainian pharmaceutical market for the sale of its products. Sales of domestic medicines are almost 30% in money and 65% in consumer packaging of the total national pharmaceutical market. Leadership in the production of pharmaceutical products belongs to pharmaceutical companies located in Kyiv and Kyiv region.

Twenty-nine Kyiv pharmaceutical companies produce more than 80% of domestic medicines. More than 12500 employees work at pharmaceutical plants in the Kyiv region. The need for specialists in the pharmaceutical industry is growing every year. The implementation of international norms and standards for the quality assurance of medicines in accordance with good manufacturing practice (GMP) requires Ukrainian pharmaceutical companies to invest heavily in human resources. In the coming years, a modern pharmaceutical company should be provided with staff who have professional education in industrial pharmacy and well versed in the principles of good manufacturing practice, knowledge of modern technologies, approaches to product management and business processes, rules for applying regulatory functions to the pharmaceutical sector.

Kyiv National University of Technology and Design is the only institution of higher education in Kyiv that trains qualified specialists at all levels of higher education according to the educational-professional and educational-scientific programs "Industrial Pharmacy".

The development of the department, the expansion of research in the field of industrial pharmacy with the broad involvement of leading professionals, young scientists, graduate students and students in research fully meets the needs of the industry and state target programs in the health sector at both regional and national levels. Practice-oriented approach in the training of specialists in the development and production of drugs, based on the direct participation of students in the work of leading pharmaceutical companies and research at the Department of Industrial Pharmacy KNUTD, provides dynamic development of research capacity of KNUTD in the field of "Biology and Health".

In 2022, the scientific research of scientists of the KNUTD School of Pharmacy was recognized at the international level (61st place in the world ranking of the TOP-100 best scientific schools and universities that produce highly qualified specialists in medicine and pharmacy according to CEOWORLD Magazine). This contributes to the dynamic development of international cooperation in education and science.

In 2021, the Faculty of Chemical and Biopharmaceutical Technologies, which includes the Department of Industrial Pharmacy, became a full member of the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP), which allowed it to join the cooperation with leading experts in pharmaceutical education.

Dynamic and purposeful integration of educational and scientific activities of the Department of Industrial Pharmacy KNUTD to the international and European space allowed the department to reach a qualitatively new level. An important step was the creation of the Kyiv Institute of Qilu Technological University - a Chine-Ukrainian institution of higher education, in which research and teaching staff of the department successfully undergo internships, participate in the educational process, train masters of pharmaceutical industry. The expansion of international activities will contribute to the effective further development of the scientific direction of KNUTD "Fundamental technologies of active longevity" and provide training of highly qualified specialists for the pharmaceutical industry of Ukraine at a new level of perception of European integration processes.
