Academics

Pharmacists are now expected not only to play important roles in prescription departments but, with their functional and practical competence, also in other clinical services. The three main roles are (1) to give full explanations of the prescribed drugs to clients, (2) to give appropriate advice to doctors on medicinal treatment, and (3) to research and develop new drugs. In order to foster a competent and reliable pharmacist with good communication skills as a member of a medical team, students are exposed to clinical scenes through practice training in attached and affiliated hospitals. Students also gain knowledge of community medicine in order to help people more efficiently.
