Presentation

Starting in the second semester of the fourth year, students choose one of four tracks to continue their studies:

  • Pharmacy sector
  • Industry sector
  • Boarding School Program
  • Research Track

During the fifth year of DFASP2, students spend half the year in hospital and the other half at university. They only take specialized courses based on their chosen field of study. At the end of this year, students take the exam for the Advanced Diploma in Pharmaceutical Sciences, which is recognized as a Master's degree.

The pharmacy program concludes with a shortthird-cycle year (formerlythe sixth year). This year is organized in two stages: first, theoretical and practical instruction, followed by a pharmacy internship.
