Pharmacy is a branch of medical science with wide-ranging practical application. The goal of pharmaceutical care is to provide medication services that cure disease, relieve or eliminate symptoms, slow or halt disease progression, prevent illness, and support accurate diagnosis. Pharmacists are professionals committed to achieving positive outcomes from medication use, improving patients' quality of life.

To do this, they must be experts in the discovery, development, manufacture, and supply of medicines — forming a vital part of the healthcare team. As medical science advances, demand for qualified, well-trained pharmacy professionals continues to grow. To meet this need for industry-ready graduates, the founders of K. J. College of Pharmacy established this institution at Babatpur, Varanasi – 221006.
