Study Pharmacy Masters Programmes
Pharmacy is a medical and scientific field that looks at producing, preparing, dispensing and reviewing medications. As a pharmacist you are responsible for the safe and effective supply of medications to patients. You will also be required to give advice about how to take medications, as well as the relationship between different medications and potential side effects. You might work in a hospital or primary care setting, or in the community in a local pharmacy.
Graduates of a masters degree in pharmacy can normally expect to be able to go straight into a job as a pharmacist.
