Course summary

The course is designed for qualified pharmacists outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or who hold an EEA pharmacist qualification which is not a relevant qualification (other than a UK-recognised pharmacist qualification) who are looking to become registered pharmacists in the UK. It's one of a small number of courses that are accredited by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC).Completing the OSPAP postgraduate diploma allows for entry to the next stages of registering as a pharmacist in the UK, and in addition, you can also apply to undertake a masters research project. The content of this course reflects the accreditation requirements of the GPhC.You can choose to study this course as a Postgraduate Diploma (PgDip) or a Masters (MSc). If you choose to study the Masters level, you will also undertake a research project. This will be an original piece of work in which you will demonstrate both theoretical and practical knowledge.You can apply with or without your GPhC adjudication, however, you will need to have this in place prior to attending an interview. Your offer will be assessed and if eligible, you will be offered an interview. To be eligible for interview, you will need to have your GPhC adjudication and to have notified us of this.
