Pharmaceutical Education in Great Britain

The history of pharmaceutical education has closely followed that of medical education. The first pharmaceutical collages in Great Britain were founded as the beginning of the 19^th century.

The course of institution leading to a degree in pharmacy was extended from 4 to 5 years in 1960. The first and frequently the second year of treating, embracing general education subjects, are often provided by a school of arts and science. Many institutions offer graduate courses in pharmacy and cognate sciences leading to the degree of Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in pharmacy, pharmacology or related disciplined. These advanced courses are intended for those who are preparing for careers in research, manufacturing or teaching in the field of pharmacy.

The basic 5-year curriculum in British collages of pharmacy embraces physics, chemistry, biology, bacteriology, physiology, pharmacology and many other specialized courses such as dispensing pharmacy. As the pharmacist is engaged in business as well, special training is provided in merchandising, accounting, computer techniques, pharmaceutical jurisprudence.

Before one is permitted to practice in Great Britain in which a license is required, an applicant must be qualified by graduation from a recognized collage of pharmacy, meet specific requirements for experience, and pass an examination conducted by a board of pharmacy appointed by the government. The passing of this board examination carries with it the legal right to practice pharmacy. The holder is then designated or licensed pharmacist.
