B. Professional Information:

I. Program Aims:

The faculty of pharmacy, Zagazig University, undergraduate

program is a five years pharmacy educational program offering a

Bachelor's degree in pharmaceutical sciences (clinical pharmacy). This

educational program aims to provide students with knowledge, skills

and abilities needed to practice the pharmacy profession effectively in

various settings including community pharmacies, hospitals, industrial

and research institutions, forensic, services, biomedical laboratories,

cosmetic industry and governmental health institutions. For that

purpose, students receive basic practical training to make them eligible

for licensure as pharmacists and clinical training to qualify them to

serve as pharmacy practitioners involved in medicines use and

pharmaceutical care through reviewing and monitoring patient’s

medication regimen.

II. The educational aims of the Program (clinical pharmacy):

The educational aims of the clinical pharmacy program state that

graduates should be able to contribute to medical science through

their basic and clinical research, innovations in medical practice, and

the assumption of leadership roles as pharmacists. The professional

pharmacists will be highly skilled and qualified according to the

National Academic Reference Standards (NARS). The program

Graduates will be able to take a leading role in the decision making

process of drug and drug product selection for individual patients,

provide specialist drug information, awareness and education

programs to the community, patients and health care providers,

effectively monitor a patient’s therapy and critically evaluate clinical

research. The clinical pharmacy program was designed to enhance

other necessary graduates skills such as time management, critical

thinking, problem solving, judgment, self assessment, team working,

lifelong learning and using of the advanced information technology The

clinical pharmacist should be able to apply criteria of Good Laboratory

Practice (GLP) and Good Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Practice

Grade point average (GPA):

The university calculates for each student, both at the end of

each grading period and cumulatively.

A grade point average (GPA) based on the ratio of grade points

earned divided by the number of credits earned with grades of

A-F (including pluses and minuses).

Both the periodic and cumulative GPA appears on each

student's record.

The semester GPA of the student is the weighted average of

the grade points acquired in the courses passed in that

particular semester.

Registration symbols that do not carry grade points or credit:

1. S: represents achievement that is satisfactory

2. U: represents achievement that is unsatisfactory


- 43 -

3. T:Transfer, indicates credit transferred from another

institution.

4. W: withdrawal prior to deadline indicates a student has

officially withdrawn from a course.

9- Failure in courses:

Student who fails to attend the final exam.

Student who fails to achieve 30% of the marks in the final

written exam.

Student who fails to achieve 60% of the total marks.

10- Regulation for progression and program

completion:

Livery student is required to attend 75% of lectures and laboratory

periods continuously.
