BA/BS in Pharmaceutical Sciences

The Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Fukuoka University has a single Pharmacy department and aims to train pharmacists who protect people's lives and health through the power of science. Beyond the knowledge needed for the national licensing examination, it offers extra expertise suited to modern, advanced healthcare. A flagship option is the clinical pharmacist training programme, with courses in cancer drug therapy and in infectious disease drug therapy. Students are also encouraged to obtain qualifications during their six years of study, including medical information technologist, cancer drug therapy student expert and oral care ambassador. The faculty runs its own project from the early years of study to build awareness of future careers, and it supports each student's growth in several ways.
