The Department of Pharmacy at Eastern University participated in the prestigious 17th Asia Pharma Expo 2026, reinforcing its commitment to bridging academic excellence with real-world pharmaceutical innovation.
Led by Department Chairman Dr. Abu Bin Ihsan, a delegation of faculty members and senior students visited the expo today. The group engaged directly with leading pharmaceutical companies, Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) manufacturers, and providers of specialized pharmaceutical machinery. Participants had the opportunity to explore the latest technological advancements and industrial equipment, gaining valuable insights into the practical applications of their academic studies.
A major highlight of the visit was the national recognition of the department’s leadership when Dr. Abu Bin Ihsan was interviewed by prominent news channel Channel I. During the interview, he emphasized the critical importance of industry exposure for pharmacy graduates and the university’s dedication to developing skilled professionals prepared for the global market.
To integrate this hands-on learning into their academic journey, the participating senior students are currently preparing a comprehensive report detailing their observations and interactions with industry leaders. This initiative reflects Eastern University’s ongoing efforts to connect classroom theory with industrial practice, ensuring students remain at the forefront of pharmaceutical sciences.
“Exposure to real industry environments is essential for our students,” said Dr. Abu Bin Ihsan, Chairman of the Department of Pharmacy. “Events like the Asia Pharma Expo allow them to witness cutting-edge innovations firsthand and understand how their academic knowledge translates into impactful solutions for the healthcare sector. We are proud to equip the next generation of pharmacy professionals with both the knowledge and practical insight they need to excel globally.”
This participation underscores Eastern University’s vision of fostering meaningful academic-industry collaborations that prepare graduates to lead in the evolving pharmaceutical landscape.
