Studying "standard" Pharmacy does not necessarily require taking the medical school entrance exam

Becoming a pharmacist is the dream of many young people, because this is a prestigious job in society and has a good income. However, not everyone has the ability and luck to pass the entrance exam to the top universities that train in Pharmacy, specializing in training in the health sector. So what is the way for young people who want to study Pharmacy but cannot pass the entrance exam to medical school?

Pharmaceutical industry is thirsty for human resources

From the past to the present, the pharmaceutical industry has never ceased to attract young people because of its attractive career and high job opportunities in the industry. Especially, in modern life, the increasing demand for health care makes the profession of Pharmacist become "hot" and highly appreciated by society.

In fact, the human resources for the pharmaceutical industry are currently in serious shortage, especially human resources at college and university levels. Moreover, the pharmaceutical industry's human resources are currently mainly focused on the fields of business, distribution, and services, forgetting the field of human health care. The main reason is that the number of colleges and universities with Pharmacy majors in our country is still too small, inevitably leading to a situation of insufficient human resources to meet social needs.

Society lacks pharmacists

According to statistics from the Drug Administration, in the recent past, the rate of pharmacists in our country has only reached 1.76/10,000 people. It is estimated that in the coming time, the pharmaceutical industry will need about 35,000 pharmacists to meet the human resource needs of hospitals, not to mention foreign pharmaceutical companies that want to do long-term business in Vietnam are also in need of recruiting pharmacists. Because of this situation, even if they do not graduate from top medical and pharmaceutical universities, as long as they are truly capable, job opportunities for graduates majoring in Pharmacy at secondary schools, colleges, and non-public universities are still very abundant.

Where is a good place to study Pharmacy if you don't pass the entrance exam to medical school?

To meet the demand for human resources in the pharmaceutical industry, the Ministry of Education and Training has recently allowed some non-public universities to open training courses in this field. However, pursuing a career in pharmacy means that you are working in jobs that require high precision. You must have an inclination towards natural sciences, especially chemistry and biology. Therefore, choosing a school that ensures the quality of training as well as meeting the standards of qualifications is a very important factor for your future career.

Among the non-public universities, Dai Nam University is one of the prestigious and quality training institutions for Pharmacy, despite its young age. According to Decision No. 2965/QD-BGDDT dated August 14, 2013, Dai Nam University was assigned by the Ministry of Education and Training to provide regular training at the university level in Pharmacy.

Students studying Pharmacy at Dai Nam University study with practice equipment that meets the standards of the Ministry of Health, invested by the School according to Decision No. 5486/QD-BYT dated December 27, 2006 of the Ministry of Health on promulgating "Standards on equipment, materials, and chemicals for practice rooms of university pharmacist training facilities".

Dai Nam University focuses on investing in standard practice equipment.

The library center has an area of 340m2 with more than 4000 books of all majors, always ready for students to look up and find information about all majors. In particular, specialized textbooks on medicine and pharmacy are always supplemented and updated according to the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Training and the Ministry of Health.

The official teaching curriculum of the Faculty is compiled under the direction of the Ministry of Health, printed and published by the Medical Publishing House and the Education Publishing House. In addition, specialized lectures are also compiled based on the exploitation of the capacity of teachers who have previously taught at Hanoi University of Pharmacy, combined with teachers with high professional qualifications, currently working in the practical field of the Pharmacy industry.

In addition, to ensure that students have practical exposure to the professional environment, the Faculty regularly signs contracts with a number of pharmaceutical companies, the Hanoi Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic Testing Center, the Pharmacy Department of Ha Dong General Hospital, Military Hospital 103, Ha Dong Medical Center and a number of other hospitals as practical internship and graduation internship facilities for students.

Students are exposed to real-life professional environments during their studies.

With a system of facilities and training quality meeting the standards of the Ministry of Education and Training and the Ministry of Health, the Faculty of Pharmacy of Dai Nam University is an ideal choice for young people who are passionate about and want to pursue Pharmacy.
