Bachelor of Pharmacy BPharm

The BPharm is developed in consultation with leading New Zealand pharmacists, and the degree reflects the needs of contemporary and future pharmacy practice. It shifts the focus from traditional drug chemistry and delivery to incorporate aspects such as understanding how drugs are developed, patient use, and pharmacists optimising patient care through interaction with other health professionals. Themes in population medicine, social science, pharmacology, pharmacy practice and pharmaceutics continue throughout the programme and are supported by courses in biomedical science, medicinal chemistry, immunology and pharmacy practice incorporating ethical issues related to practice and pharmaceutical management.
