Master of Pharmacy Practice

From 2009, the faculty will deliver an off-campus, coursework based Master of Pharmacy Practice, flexible enough to fit into any pharmacist’s professional development plan.

The Master of Pharmacy Practice is designed to enable students to develop a deep and more specialised range of attributes that builds upon the foundations of an undergraduate pharmacy degree. Students will be able to select units related to various advanced areas of pharmacy practice, for example aspects of clinical practice, wound care, and health economics.

The objectives of the Master of Pharmacy Practice are:

  • to provide a knowledge base for advanced practice in a variety of pharmacy practice areas;
  • to develop skills in critical literature evaluation;
  • to further develop written and oral communication skills.

Upon completion of the course, graduates will be able to:

  • undertake advanced practice roles in selected areas;
  • critically evaluate literature;
  • use evidence-based principles to guide practice.

As this course is not CRICOS registered, international students located in Australia who wish to undertake the Master of Pharmacy Practice are not eligible to enrol unless they are registered as a pharmacist in Australia and have the appropriate visa. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that they have the appropriate visa.
