Bundle Description
The Kinetics course at the University of Jordan is designed specifically for pharmacy students. This course offers an in-depth exploration of the fundamental principles of chemical kinetics, focusing on how reactions progress over time and the factors that influence reaction rates. Understanding kinetics is crucial for pharmacy students, as it directly applies to drug formulation, stability, and the interaction of medications within the human body.
Key topics covered in the course include reaction rates, mechanisms, the effect of temperature and concentration on reaction speed, and the role of catalysts. Additionally, students will examine the kinetics of enzyme-catalyzed reactions and the principles governing pharmacokinetics, such as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs.
Guided by experienced faculty, students will develop analytical skills to solve real-world problems related to drug design, formulation, and therapeutic efficacy. Practical examples from pharmaceutical sciences will help students connect theoretical concepts to the dynamic processes involved in drug development and patient care.
By the end of the course, pharmacy students will have a strong foundation in kinetics, equipping them to apply these principles to drug development, quality control, and clinical practice. This course prepares students for advanced studies in pharmacology and professional applications in the pharmaceutical industry.
