Our curriculum is outcomes-focused and designed to prepare you for your future professional practice.

You will also undertake external placements throughout your course, so that by the time you graduate you have the skills and the confidence to kickstart your career. The Medway School of Pharmacy has achieved full accreditation from the General Pharmaceutical Council and is recognised as an established school of pharmacy. You can join the student-led Medway Pharmacy Students' Association who organise a number of social activities such as trips, movie nights and sporting events. The MPharm programme is centred around three main themes; the medicine, the patient and the professional. These aspects come together and are integrated through demonstrating patient care around integrated cases.
