Overview

The Pharmacy programme offered by Bangor University is built specifically for the modern pharmacist, in collaboration with pharmacists from community pharmacy, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, GPs and primary care providers across North Wales.

The overall philosophy of the MPharm Pharmacy programme places the patient, and the way in which a pharmacist serves the needs of the patient, as central to the learning experience of the pharmacy student.

Whilst focussing on the patient, their medicines and their care, the MPharm programme will equip the future pharmacist with a strong scientific foundation that will inform their decisions in practice. The programme will equip the future pharmacist with the skills and knowledge to practice safely and ethically within the emerging independent prescribing environment.

Careers

The MPharm is a vocational programme where the main outcome is that graduates will enter in to a Foundation Training Year (FY; 5th year) as a trainee pharmacist prior to sitting the GPhC National Registration Exam and then becoming a qualified pharmacist.

Employability support will be provided to students throughout the programme. We will work with students in year 3 to prepare them for Oriel (the FY placement mechanism) and in year 4 to prepare them for FY Training.

A very small number of graduates do not progress through Oriel but instead enter other professions (law, journalism, academia) and careers support will be provided for this minority.
