MPharm Pharmacy
Course overview
The University of Greenwich MPharm Pharmacy will prepare students for a career as pharmacists. Students will learn about patient care by studying basic and applied science, and clinical and professional practice. This four-year programme provides pharmacy education of excellent quality and focuses on producing future pharmacists who will promote safe and effective use of medicines, ensuring patient and public safety at all times. The graduates will demonstrate intellectual creativity and curiosity in their professional practice.
The MPharm curriculum is outcomes-focused, and it is designed to prepare students for their future professional practice as both a pharmacist and prescriber. Teaching covers basic and applied science and clinical and professional practice, all in the context of patient care. The three core themes of Biological science and therapeutics, Pharmaceutical sciences, and Professional practice and prescribing, are taught through year-long modules and these are brought to life through real scenarios based around body systems. By using these body systems across the three core themes, they break down barriers, enabling students to learn more effectively.
