About
MCOPS of today owes its origin to the vision and enterprise of Late Dr. TMA Pai, who ushered in an era of self-financed education, an event that changed the Indian landscape of tertiary education. A college that started offering a Diploma in Pharmacy (DPharm) education in 1963, became a degree college for a Bachelor of Pharmacy (BPharm) program in 1965. Eventually, MCOPS became the first college to offer a postgraduate course (MPharm) in Karnataka in 1970 and the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) program in 2008 in India.
