College Profile
In the 1970’s, the CHM campus in Ulhasnagar, managed by Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board, housed two Pharmacy Institutes – Principal K. M. Kundnani College of Pharmacy and Principal K. M. Kundnani Pharmacy Polytechnic. The former offered Bachelor of Pharmacy and Master of Pharmacy courses while the latter provided education leading to Diploma in Pharmacy. Later, Principal K. M. Kundnani College of Pharmacy shifted base to Mumbai leaving a void for Pharmacy education in Ulhasnagar.
In 2004, Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board filled this void by establishing HSNCB’s College of Pharmacy offering the Bachelor of Pharmacy course. On 2nd April 2006 this college was formally renamed as Dr. L. H. Hiranandani College of Pharmacy in honor of Padmabhushan Dr. L. H. Hiranandani – a great ENT surgeon, philanthropist and Patron Trustee of Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board.
Over the years the college grew in strength, crossing many milestones and soon becoming well known for its discipline and high academic standards. Bolstered by the success of the B. Pharm. program and with encouragement from the management, the college extended itself to begin the Master of Pharmacy (M. Pharm.) courses in specializations of Pharmaceutics, Quality Assurance, Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Chemistry.
