Pharmacy Program and Co-op
Pharmacy students must complete four co-op work terms. During each work term, students must complete one PDPHRM-labelled course.
In their first academic year, students are required to register as a pharmacy student with the Ontario College of Pharmacists (OCP). The OCP is the body that is responsible for issuing certificates of registration for students, interns and pharmacists as well as regulating the Pharmacy profession in Ontario. The School of Pharmacy will be aligned with the College's studentship requirements. At the start of their work terms in Ontario, students must register the position with OCP by submitting a completed "Notice of Pharmacy Work Placement - Non-Credit Position" form. Only students registered with the Ontario College of Pharmacists are allowed to perform the controlled acts of a pharmacist under the direct supervision of a pharmacist.
General co-op requirements are described in the Co-operative Education and Career Services section of the Calendar. The School of Pharmacy has specific co-op work term guidelines.
Added Non-Academic Requirements
In addition to the academic requirements listed above, there are a number of non-academic requirements that must be completed prior to proceeding to the first co-op term (e.g., immunization, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and First Aid). These requirements are mandated by the Ontario College of Pharmacists. Students are held individually accountable for submission of required documentation, and should review the current requirements listed on the Pharmacy website.
English Language Proficiency Requirement
Prior to graduation, students must meet the English language proficiency requirements for the Faculty of Science as stated in the Undergraduate Calendar. Successful completion of this requirement is mandatory for graduation.
