 Students enrolled on the the Bachelor in Pharmacy course are preparing for the training offered in the Master in Pharmacy programme, on completion of which they will achieve the title of pharmacist. The aim of the programme is therefore to help the students become medication specialists able to improve patient health.


The training in the first year of the Bachelor programme is based on an in-depth study of the basic sciences (chemistry, biology, physics, anatomy, etc.) used in the context of pharmacy.

In the second year, the pharmaceutical element increases significantly, in particular via the study of pharmacology, medicinal plants, and an introduction to analytical chemistry and the chemical synthesis of medications.

The final year of the Bachelor programme further reinforces the foundation in pharmacy and initiates students into a work environment (compulsory work placement in a field of the student's choice). The programme as a whole enables students to acquire a base of knowledge and expertise in the basic sciences, as well as specialist training in pharmacy.


During the three years of the Bachelor’s course, by coming to a better understanding of the use of a medication and its effect on the body, the students will develop their training and professional projects, which they will pursue throughout the Master’s programme, with increasing independence.


On successful completion of this programme, each student is able to :
1. Demonstrate pharmaceutical expertise: use a body of concepts and knowledge in pharmacy and health

2. Scientific approach: resolve pharmaceutical problems by using their knowledge and critical thinking

3. Communication: communicate in an effective, robust and respectful manner from a professional perspective

4. Sense of responsibility: act in an ethical and responsible manner

5. Quality: carry out self-assessment, supplement their knowledge and adapt their approach
