This course includes a work integrated learning experience in which your knowledge and skills will be applied and assessed in a real or simulated workplace context and where feedback from industry and/ or community is integral to your experience.

Professional skills are acquired during a period of supervised placement with an organisation associated with the pharmaceutical industry (e.g., pharmaceutical company, clinical trials organisation, hospital, etc.). The course covers the second half of the placement year, and aims to provide students with experience, skills, knowledge and attributes that characterise a pharmaceutical science professional that can only be obtained in the workplace.
