Pharmaceutical chemistry is an area of chemistry focused on the development of new drugs used to prevent, cure or relieve symptoms of disease. Modern medical practice relies on an enormous armamentarium of drugs that block, counteract or lessen the debilitating effects of disease. The pharmaceutical chemistry option at Illinois Institute of Technology emphasizes the synthesis and characterization of pharmaceuticals as well as the relationship between the structure of the drug to its biological activity.
