Abstract

The Bachelor of Pharmacy curriculum in 2013 is very different from the one of 50 years ago. The curriculum today reflects that pharmacy education at Otago is organised around three broad areas: pharmaceutical sciences, clinical pharmacy and the more recent addition of social pharmacy. This aligns with the government’s ‘Medicines Strategy’ concerning quality, best use and access. Pharmacy students now join the University’s Health Sciences First Year. In year 2 and the first semester of year 3 they take a variety of papers that provide the foundation for the remaining three semesters which focus on the integrated Quality Use of Medicines. Registration as a pharmacist in New Zealand follows the completion of a one-year intern programme run by the Pharmaceutical Society of New Zealand.
