Outline of pharmaceutical training

The pharmaceutical training divided into four years of study at a university, an internship of eight weeks practical training of 12 months and the pharmaceutical examination which shall be taken in three sections.

The content of university education is determined by the licensing regulations and includes 10 subject areas. In the basic studies basic concepts of the natural sciences are taught only in the main study special pharmaceutical content to be taught.

  • Fabric treated area A in 462 lessons which topics are general, inorganic and organic chemistry
  • Fabric treated area B in 392 lessons the Pharmaceutical Analysis
  • Fabric treated area C in 280 lessons mathematics, physical fundamentals and Arzneiformenlehre
  • Fabric treated area D in 392 lessons basics of general and human biology
  • Fabric treated area E in 196 lessons Biochemistry and Pathobiochemistry
  • Fabric treated area F in 364 lessons Pharmaceutical Technology and Biopharmaceutics
  • Fabric treated area G in 238 lessons Biogenic drugs
  • Fabric treated area H in 420 lessons Medicinal Chemistry and Drug analysis
  • Fabric area I treated in 406 lessons Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy
  • Fabric area includes the K abzuleistende in 112 lessons elective

The number of teaching hours for each subject areas may vary slightly depending on the university or matriculation, since according Approbationsordnung events from a fabric area may also be held in another.

However, this is regulated differently from state to state.

At most universities there are in the main study so-called lecture series (also main courses ). Here is a lecture on the four semesters of the main study will be kept and heard by all students in the main study. Missed a student he has a lecture or two years to wait until it is read again. In the study no specialization was up to the current licensing regulations with the introduction of elective compartment possible. The pharmacy students finished until today no scientific thesis, but may after a degree in pharmacy, for example, in the natural sciences doctorate ( Dr. rer. Nat. ). At some universities, the academic degrees diploma and / or MasterCard may be additionally acquired through postgraduate studies.
