    Exclamation Pharmacist Registration Help

    I'm a Bachelor of Pharmacy holder from India. Now I'm thinking of doing a master's degree in london. Finally i've shortlisted my option to do either MBA(Healthcare) or Msc Pharmacology. If I choose to do Msc Pharmacology, after completion, can i register as a pharmacist in uk without OSPAP. If der is any other better suggestion, pls let me know. I'm new to this forum. Pls help !!

    Doubt it - OSPAP is a registration requirement for those with qualifications outside of the EU.
    Best to contact the GPhC Home page - General Pharmaceutical Council and ask them.
    Where am I?; In the Pharmacy.
    Who are you?; The new Number 2.
    Who is number 1?; You are number 6.
    What do you want?;..................

    Doubt it too. OSPAP is the only option for oversea pharmacist to work in the UK..plus a year of pre-registration training and exams. There are only 4 uni that do this course at the moment.

    I'm not sure of any of the system any more - better just to have a sticky...
    So you are from outside the EU and want to practice in the UK?; with the GPhC website link on it.
    Another thread can say

    Sorry people - I'm closing down on responding to these queries in future.

    No you need a pharmacy degree to be a pharmacist! If you have a foreign pharmacy degree you do OSPAP and then they may allow you to practice. Theres more info on my site GPhC Exam | GPhC Courses | GPhC Syllabus | GPhC Test | GPhC Questions
