Overview

Master of Pharmacy (International)

The UTS Master of Pharmacy (International) is an accredited three-year graduate-entry degree leading to eligibility for registration as a pharmacist.

The course is an Australian first, extending the Master of Pharmacy (C04252) program to include a one-year overseas clinical placement. 

This allows students to expand their knowledge even further, gaining practice-based experience of pharmacy in a global context and an understanding of the international factors that influence pharmacy practice and healthcare provision. 

Overseas clinical placements include those in Canada, Germany or the United Kingdom. 

Language and culture subjects cater to beginners and students with prior language knowledge. 

The innovative and practice-based course builds on students' solid scientific foundation to provide specialists with comprehensive knowledge relevant to contemporary pharmacy practice. 

In addition to the pharmaceutical sciences, this includes professional pharmacy services, integrated therapeutics and the unique capstone subject, 96014 Molecule to Market. 

Two elective subjects provide students with the opportunity to individualise their studies.
