2024 Study Abroad Program for Students from the School of Pharmacy, University of Portsmouth
The first week of their studies saw the UoP students both in the classroom and in laboratories actively learning about pharmacy education in Japan. This included topics such as: Introduction to Japanese Language and Customs, Public Health, Molecular Medicinal Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Health and Sports Science, Clinical Pharmacokinetics, Community Clinical Pharmacy, and Pharmacognosy. While studying, they were also joined by students from NUSP who had an invaluable opportunity to use their English skills.
Week two of their studies saw the UoP students split into small groups visiting hospital pharmacies (Nichidai and Itabashi) and a Kampo pharmacy in Chiba. At Itabashi Hospital, the students learned about the roles pharmacists play in the emergency room. While at Nichidai Hospital it was about the role pharmacists play in team healthcare and infection control. Lastly, the NUSP student visits to the Kampo pharmacy allowed them to learn about how Chinese herbal medicines are prescribed and the role a pharmacist plays—something they had never experienced in the UK.
When not studying, the UoP students spent much time with NUSP students sightseeing in Tokyo and Chiba. Everyone involved surely made memories to last a lifetime and we very much look forward to future visits by UoP students.
