4 Years Pharmacy and admission to masters or pharmD
Hello guys,
somebody asked me if someone with four year bachelor's degree in pharmacy can enroll in masters program in usa. I was told that pharmacy in usa is a five year program. in such case, what is the process for one to get into masters or pharmD program?
any ideas? anyone with undergrad in pharmacy from nepal/india doing master in usa?
Since he/she has a 4 year bachelor's degree in Pharmacy, he/she is good to go for Master's degree. In USA, the pharamcy degree is very intensive, therefore usually they take 3 yrs to finish once they get into pharamcay shcool after 2 yrs of general educations plus pharamcy pre-requisite classes (2+3). So 4 or 5 yrs of undergraduate is not an issue to get into Masters program.
For PharmaD he/she must get a license first. As far as I understand, PharmD and Masters degree in Pharmacy are totally different. PhramD involves more into adminstrative work and managing a pharmacy, where as Master's is research based.
He/she can apply for Master's degree via graduate school. You or friend of your's can email me via sajha, if you need more information.
Thanks!

Thanks cannabis for your response. I will advise to send you an email via sajha. Would you mind sharing some more information about how to get license first with undergrad from nepal/india? can someone with undergrad from nepal get a license here? If i am not wrong, there will be some kind of test to pass to get the license right? thanks again.
