Overview

About Mar Dioscorus College of Pharmacy Sreekariyam

Mar Dioscorus College of Pharmacy is a pharmacy college in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, established in 2004. Mar Dioscorus College of Pharmacy is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to Kerala University of Health Sciences. Its programmes are approved by the PCI. Mar Dioscorus College of Pharmacy offers 4 programmes, 2 at undergraduate level and 2 at postgraduate level. They are Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm), Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm), Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm D) and Master of Pharmacy (M.Pharm). The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 160 seats. Exact institution identified as Mar Dioscorus College of Pharmacy, Hermongiri Vidyapeetam, Alathara, Sreekariyam P.O., Thiruvananthapuram 695017. The 2024 annual report states that the college applied for Pharm D; therefore Pharm-D-specific hospital-bed data is not recorded as established. The official college site describes this as a self-financing pharmacy college governed by the Charitable and Educational Society of the Thiruvananthapuram Orthodox Diocese, sponsored by the Thiruvananthapuram Diocese of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. PCI's official B.Pharm and D.Pharm Section 12 pages state approval only up to academic session 2023-24 for 60 admissions; they do not support 2026-27, so no 2026-27 PCI approval is asserted. The PCI 'conduct of course only' page does not list this college. The college site states affiliation to KUHS, while the opened KUHS 2025-26 student-union electoral-roll result names the college but does not provide an affiliated-college code or establish a latest affiliation year.
