Pharmacy
The Master's study in the Pharmacy study program is characterized by a balanced ratio of the scopes of individual forms of contact teaching. The students' practical training is specific and includes completion of a 6-month internship during their studies in public or hospital pharmacies at home and abroad. The final theses are of an experimental nature. Research results are presented during the course of study at faculty and international conferences of student scientific activity. Pharmaceutical education educates an original expert who is the only one in society who knows everything about drugs. The Faculty of Pharmacy of the CU has a long-standing position as a leader in pharmaceutical education in our region. Graduates have extensive knowledge about the fate of drugs in the body, their effects, health and social aspects of the use of drugs, they master pharmaceutical technology, pharmaceutical, chemical, and biological testing of drugs. They have practical skills with wide applications, not only in the regulated profession of pharmacist, but also in pharmacy, in the production and distribution of medicines, clinical practice or the pharmaceutical industry.
Prospects of graduates
Graduates of pharmaceutical studies find employment in Slovakia and abroad primarily as pharmacists of public and hospital pharmacies, clinical pharmacists in hospital departments, employees of pharmaceutical companies in the production, research and distribution of drugs, in health insurance companies, and also as employees of scientific, research and control institutes and laboratories. but also as teaching staff at secondary and higher education institutions in the education and training of pharmaceutical students. Pharmacy is among the regulated industries with the highest incomes, and FPHARM CU graduates are not at risk of graduate unemployment.
