Dear Sir,
In the UK all the graduate (equivalent to post graduation in INDIA) courses are referred to as MSc and they are of one year duration. As the Mpharm course in INDIA is a two year course, I was wondering whether the Indian industrial community would accept the UK degree as an equivalent to Mpharm in India.

Equal or more

I would say you will be given equal or more preference . Usually industry is looking for what experience you can bring it to them (Industry ). If you are lucky to get rich experience at university you are studying, you should get a good job in India. Try to complete PhD there though

Thank you for the reply sir, Actually I am planning to complete both my graduation (MSc) and post graduation (PhD) as they are so called in UK. I have applied for University of Surrey and University of Burmingham for MSc Toxicology course. Could you please give your suggestions and your opinions about the course?

It's not course title get you job. Its the knowledge and skills you learned during the course will get you job. When a company wanted to hire you, they will look in to "what can you bring" to them inorder to hire. So, learn skills and knowlege as much as possible , job will be your's. Don't underestimate value of networking...its crusial these days ...so knowlege+skills+teamplayer attidue+ Networking is the success formula... see this video ..how jobs scenario is changing every year
