Open Day
On Saturday 5 August, a record number of future students soaked up the atmosphere of the Victorian College of Pharmacy Open Day. The day was a huge success with tomato sauce experiments designed to provide an introduction to Formulation Chemistry, the opportunity to make your own flubber, and a simulated 3D game which demonstrated the complexity of computational chemistry.
Prospective students spoke one-on-one with academic staff and course advisers, they explored our teaching and research facilities and chatted to current students about life on campus.
Open Day at the Victorian College of Pharmacy was another way that graduates could reconnect with the college. Alumni were invited to come along and see how the college has changed and take part in the activities made available by the college’s Foundation.
A chalk artist drew a small section of the Sisson’s mural in the front courtyard of the college. The Dean, Colin Chapman hosted a special morning tea where attendees were treated to cup cakes decorated with a photo of the College from the 1970’s and the 125th anniversary logo.
Two graduates Frank Fischer and Jack Fisher attended Open day and were amazed at the changes at the college. Franz a 1956 graduate was here in Australia from his home in Tel Aviv, Israel where he works as a community pharmacist.
