Overview
In Year 1, the Advanced Pharmacy Practice programme from University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) will provide you with up-to-date information on clinical pharmacy, evidence-based medicine and public health.
Year 2 is flexible and you’ll be able to choose options to suit your interests. These include modules on: Integrated Care, Acute and Emergency Care, Mental Health, Leadership and Management, as well as a qualification as an Independent Prescriber.
Pathway opportunities
You may consider an alternative research opportunity with us – the MSc (by research) is very similar to a PhD, but with a research project designed to take 12 months. It’s not intended as a first step towards a PhD, but rather as an alternative to a PhD.
Accreditation
This course is accredited by the GPhC, which regulates pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and pharmacies in Great Britain. You will gain the knowledge and skills required to be a key member of a healthcare team - becoming a pharmacy expert, health advocate, communicator, collaborator, scholar and professional.
