1. What are biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics?
2. Will learn how to do non-compartment analysis (NCA) and 
compartment analysis through various administration routes 
including oral and intravenous (IV). 
3. Will learn how PK relates to the genetics, which is known as 
pharmacogenetics.
4. Will learn the principles of absorption, distribution, 
metabolism, and excretion (ADME) and to apply these principles 
to optimize a patient’s dosage regimen.
5. In terms of drug development, students will identify 
hypothetical drugs that have suitable PK properties for drug 
development.

All academic work must meet the standards contained in “A 
Culture of Honesty," the University of Georgia’s policies on 
Academic Honesty 
http://honesty.uga.edu/ahpd/culture_honesty.htm). All students 
are responsible for knowing and complying by these University 
policies on Academic Honesty, and it is the responsibility of 
the course instructor to uphold these standards. Any student who 
is non-compliant with the Academic Honesty policy will be 
reported to the University of Georgia Academic Honesty Office 
for review. Breaches of the Academic Honesty policy include but 
are not limited to: unauthorized assistance on course 
assignments or exams, submitting another’s work as the student’s 
own or failing to properly document referenced materials, lying 
to course instructor, or tampering with course materials.
