MPharmPrac Master of Pharmacy Practice
Our Master of Pharmacy Practice (MPharmPrac) is the first graduate-entry pharmacy programme in New Zealand and has been developed to help address the pharmacy workforce shortage in Aotearoa New Zealand.
The programme embodies a holistic approach to health assessment, underpinned by a range of Hauora Māori models, including Te Whare Tapa Whā, Te Wheke and the Meihana Model.
Your academic learning will be integrated with pharmacy practice in the form of community, primary care and hospital placements under the supervision of clinical academic pharmacists.
By the end of your two-year masters degree, you will be able to provide culturally and clinically safe practice with expertise in the optimal and equitable use of medicines across New Zealand. You will be eligible to apply for registration as an Intern Pharmacist with the Pharmacy Council of New Zealand | Te Pou Whakamana Kaimatū o Aotearoa. After completing and passing the Intern Training Programme, you will be eligible to apply for registration as a Pharmacist.
As spaces are limited, the deadline for applications will normally be 31 August in the year prior to your intended start year. Please note: all applicants will go through a selection process. For more information, see our tips for applying for our clinical programmes.
