Study Pharmacy Abroad
Pharmacy and pharmaceutical-sciences programs abroad have important licensing considerations — understanding study versus practice rules is essential.
Studying pharmacy abroad — the big picture
Pharmacy and pharmaceutical-sciences programs are offered across countries including the UK, USA, Australia, Canada and others, but professional licensing to practise is separate from study admission and varies by country.
It is essential to distinguish studying pharmaceutical sciences from qualifying to practise as a pharmacist — licensing rules differ by country and change, so confirm current requirements.
Program names, entry requirements and costs vary widely by country and university — always confirm current details.
