Foundation degree in Pharmacy Practice (FdPP)
This programme covers the same 4 x 30 credit courses as the first year MPharm. Two of these courses are taught in each of the two years. In addition, first year students take two 15 credit courses designed to enhance their basic science knowledge prior to studying the courses in year two. Both years include courses based on extensive practice placements. Year one includes a 30 credit course designed around the placement, while in year 2 a practice based portfolio (60 credits) is developed. These help students to decide if pharmacy is the career for them.
