About this programme

Designed for graduates of Curtin’s Bachelor of Pharmacy (Honours) or equivalent accredited pharmacy degrees, this course represents the next stage in an integrated pharmacy registration pathway. Entry is competitive and based on academic performance. This course prepares you for pharmacist registration through advanced clinical training in expanded practice areas such as prescribing and complex medication management, alongside a one-year integrated internship. Beyond traditional dispensing roles, pharmacists are taking on an increasingly central role in patient care, contributing to prescribing, clinical decision-making, and collaborative management of complex health needs within multidisciplinary teams.
