Program Summary

Program Description

For those with a science undergraduate considering enrolment in the Master of Pharmacy course at UC, but are missing some of the pre-requisites, then the Graduate Certificate in Pharmacotherapy course is the perfect course to help bring them up to speed - fast.

This full time (1 semester) program will teach students pharmacy basics in chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, anatomy, and physiology; and allow them to meet the minimum pre-requisite units to transition into the Master of Pharmacy course confidently.
