**We’re excited to announce that Bangor University is set to open its doors for students to apply for our new Pharmacy undergraduate programme starting in September 2025.**<br/><br/>This new 4 year MPharm programme within the North Wales Medical School at Bangor will align with the General Pharmaceutical Council’s new Standards for Initial Education and Training of Pharmacists and will support the regional health and wellbeing of the population by preparing pharmacy graduates for their roles as part of integrated healthcare teams to facilitate patient care.<br/><br/>The overall philosophy of the MPharm Pharmacy programme places the patient, and the way in which a pharmacist serves the needs of the patient, as central to the learning experience of the pharmacy student. Whilst focussing on the patient, their medicines and their care, the MPharm programme will equip the future pharmacist with a strong scientific foundation that will inform their decisions in practice. The programme will equip the future pharmacist with the skills and knowledge to practice safely and ethically within the emerging independent prescribing environment.<br/><br/>Please note: This programme is currently being prepared for internal validation and so is currently subject to successful validation along with continued GPhC accreditation. Bangor University is working towards accreditation of this programme with the GPhC. The programme will be provisionally accredited until the accreditation process is complete.
