FIP World List
of Pharmacy Schools

FIP, as the global leader for pharmacy, has taken the initiative to build the “FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools”, which will be the most comprehensive and up-to-date list of pharmacy institutions from around the world. This global list is intended to guide all pharmacy stakeholders, from students to policymakers, in assessing the appropriateness and effectiveness of pharmacy education strategies. The availability, completeness and quality of FIP’s World List of Pharmacy Schools means it will provide a unique source of information for pharmaceutical workforce policies, procedures and plans.

Further background on the FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools:

The FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools is an initiative to monitor pharmaceutical capacity and capability, similar to those of many other global organisations, such as the World Medical Schools List held by the World Medical Association. Given 2021 is the World Health Organization’s Year of Health and Care Workers, the need for our global organisations to demonstrate increased capacity in all health workers is key to ensure our professions are not further diminished but amplified.

FIP is a founder member of the World Health Professions Alliance (WHPA) with doctors, nurses, dentists, and physiotherapists. All WHPA members have been requested to feedback their schools’ status to the WHO as part of pandemic preparedness, and FIP having a list of accredited pharmacy schools will help to identify where schools may be needed and created to ensure long-term pharmaceutical workforce capacity.

The Center's teaching staff, close to 250, participate in a large number of specialized training programs and doctoral programs, turning the Faculty into a large space dedicated to research where many complex problems related to food development, nutrition, and pharmaceutical sciences.

A priority objective of the Center is to strengthen the connection between academic training and professional practice. For this reason, among its facilities, a Practical Pharmacy classroom stands out, a teaching space that reproduces a pharmacy office, providing a unique environment for activities related to healthcare pharmacy practice. We have a Nutritional Office dedicated to facilitating the necessary training to exercise advisory functions in our diet, and a modern Food Technology Pilot Plant for teaching, research and knowledge transfer to improve their quality and safety.

In addition, the Center houses the "Profesor José María Suñé Arbussà" Pharmacy History Museum and the historic Botica Picó de Cartagena, both spaces fulfill an important teaching function as they allow students to link theoretical explanations about science and medicine. Pharmaceutical profession with the visualization of the objects that are preserved from the past and artisanal stage of the Pharmacy.

With all this, it is intended to provide training that, under the values of inclusion, equality and sustainability, allows students access to research and the generation of knowledge, as well as good professional performance for the benefit of social progress.
