Pharmacy Internship program and Graduate Certificate in Pharmacy Practice

The Monash University Pharmacy Internship program assists pharmacy graduates in making the transition from student to independent, competent professional. The course has a very practical focus that helps interns consolidate and build upon the knowledge and skills gained as an undergraduate and apply these to their practice as a pharmacist.

When you complete the Monash University Pharmacy Internship program you will also be half way toward earning a postgraduate qualification. You can earn the Graduate Certificate in Pharmacy Practice by completing additional elective units. The elective units allow you to develop further knowledge and skills in a range of pharmacy practice-related areas, providing a great opportunity for ongoing professional development at the same time as earning the additional qualification. The Graduate Certificate may provide long-term benefits such as enhanced career opportunities, professional satisfaction  and higher salary.  In public hospitals, for example, you will be entitled to a ‘higher qualification allowance’.
