Eastern Mediterranean University Faculty of Pharmacy, established in 2011, has been continuing to serve to pharmacy students to have them gain the skills to become a pharmacist. The faculty building has been constructed to provide all pharmaceutical disciplines to the hosted students employing diverse laboratories and subsidiaries. Drug synthesis, drug analysis, preparation of herbal preparations, drug formulation studies with additional pharmacological and toxicological perspectives of drug action have been introduced both experimentally and theoretically in courses followed.
There are two programs present at undergraduate level within the
curriculum. Although both of them are bachelor degree programs, they require
either a 5-year (M. Pharm, Master of Pharmacy) or 6-year (Pharm. D. Doctor of
Pharmacy) education. The M. Pharm. program, accredited and approved by YÖK
(Council of Higher Education of Turkiye) and YÖDAK (Higher Education Planning,
Evaluation, Accreditation and Coordination Council of Turkish Republic of
Northern Cyprus) particularly welcomes students both from Turkish countries
(including Turkiye) and many places of the world where pharmacy education is approved
for a five year of program. On the other hand, 6-year program, Pharm. D.,
generally accepts students from those countries where 6 year of education is
warranted for pharmacy. Proudly stating that there have been more than a
thousand of students have been graduated from both programs so far.
One of the important aspects of having bachelor degree in Eastern Mediterranean University Faculty of Pharmacy is the possession of the chance to meet with many students from diverse countries. Indeed, our past and current students are all from at least 36 countries of the world. The multicultural organization is also another advantageous point for the students to improve themselves and this gives more courage to them to find diverse job options in the current global world. It is a privilege for Faculty of Pharmacy graduates of EMU that many of them can have careers in developed countries. Indeed, there are many graduates who conduct their major in USA, and many other European countries.
Of course, considering all the historical and natural beauties of our lovely city, our students also get the joy of living in Famagusta during their stay. As the island is in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, many beaches, recreation and sport centers, and many other activity places have been organized by the university for the benefit of Eastern Mediterranean University students.
