The Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) is a four-year programme that provides you with a unique opportunity of studying in Malaysia and the UK. The programme puts you on the right track for a successful pharmacy career. After finishing your degree, you will spend a salaried year in pharmacy practice (known as pre-registration training) before sitting the accrediting body’s registration exam.
