Faculty of Pharmacy
Drugs are the focal point for all research and teaching at the faculty. Research in the area of pharmaceuticals is inherently interdisciplinary. The faculty's research and education thus includes an integration of science, health, social and technical sciences. Here you'll read on pharmaceutical training, get a master's in pharmaceutical sciences, you get a Ph.D., go to graduate school and after, or further education.
Pharmaceutical Sciences merged on 1 January 2007 together with the Royal. Veterinary and Agricultural University of Copenhagen - for DFU's case under the name of Pharmaceutical Sciences (FARMA).
Researchers and students remain at the address University Park 2 - now as part of fram the University of North Campus . The location in Copenhagen and thus in the Oresund region means close proximity to one of the world's biggest powerhouses in medicine and biotechnology.
As was the case in DFU constitutes drugs focal point for all research and teaching at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences - which will also be the only place in Denmark where trained pharmacists.
FARMA has about 1,300 undergraduate and graduate students, 110 doctoral students, 70 students of the Faculty's master's degrees and 120 enkeltfags- and visiting students. The number of employees is around 350, of which about half are faculty members, and they are divided into three departments, the library and the administration.
FARMA offers highly qualified teaching based on an integration of chemical, biological, pharmaceutical and society-related subjects, which together means that pharmacists are experts in the fields of research, development, testing, production, control and use of drugs.
The Pharmaceutical College was founded in 1892 in Stockholm Street in Copenhagen and moved in 1942 to larger premises in University Park in Østerbro and changing of the name to Danish School of Pharmacy. The name was changed again in 2003, this time to the Danish University of Pharmaceutical Sciences.
