Career Development

A feature of this MPharm is experiential learning in the clinical environment through inclusion of clinical placements in both primary and secondary care settings

Professional Accreditations

The degree is accredited by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) and the Pharmaceutical Society of Northern Ireland (Pharmaceutical Society NI) and we are required to meet the ‘Standards for the initial education and training of pharmacists (2021)’ that relate to the MPharm degree. The accreditation process for these 2021 Standards is occurring in two parts. Part one occurred in 2022-23 and Part 2 is during 2024-25. Therefore, the MPharm degree programme is subject to change to meet the 2021 Standards, and prospective students should note that these changes are ongoing. The 2021 Standards place more emphasis on students demonstrating professional judgement, management of risk, diagnostic and consultation skills, and other attributes associated with being an independent prescriber. There is also a greater focus on experiential learning and equality diversity and inclusion. https://www.pharmacyregulation.org/education/approved-providers-education-and-training/accredited-mpharm-degrees#Belfast
