Abstract
Objective: Designing a region's need-based programs can be an exceptional complement boosting the knowledge economy of the country. United Arab Emirates (UAE) is increasingly focusing on the pharma and biotech sectors. As a result, there have been increasing demands for qualifications in pharmacy education to fit into higher roles in pharmaceutical industries and multinational companies (MNCs) in the region.
Method: This study is a case demonstration that details the design processes authors used for the graduate program 'Pharmaceutical Product Development'.
Results: The three stages in program positioning; identifying the need for the new program, program design, and development, and program effectiveness are illustrated in this manuscript.
Conclusion: The authors believe that this manuscript serves as a valuable resource for novice curriculum developers in the development of new educational programs.
期刊介绍:
Pharmacy Practice is a free full-text peer-reviewed journal with a scope on pharmacy practice. Pharmacy Practice is published quarterly. Pharmacy Practice does not charge and will never charge any publication fee or article processing charge (APC) to the authors. The current and future absence of any article processing charges (APCs) is signed in the MoU with the Center for Pharmacy Practice Innovation (CPPI) at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) School of Pharmacy. Pharmacy Practice is the consequence of the efforts of a number of colleagues from different Universities who belief in collaborative publishing: no one pays, no one receives. Although focusing on the practice of pharmacy, Pharmacy Practice covers a wide range of pharmacy activities, among them and not being comprehensive, clinical pharmacy, pharmaceutical care, social pharmacy, pharmacy education, process and outcome research, health promotion and education, health informatics, pharmacoepidemiology, etc.
