PharmD Program
As a response to calls from the health sector in Libya, in 2016, Faculty of Pharmacy at LIMU, moved to PharmD program.
The 5-years program curriculum – composed of 20 integrated core blocks – stresses on active learning, critical thinking, self-learning, problem-solving and clinical experience to prepare students for participating in a variety of professional settings.
Clinical portion of the program provides students with hands-on experience in hospitals, community pharmacy, government institution and other settings.
