This blog is intended to stress the importance of adoption of a compulsory 5 year degree course in B.Pharmacy in India.
As we all B.Pharm students and Pharmacy professionals know that B.Pharm course currently has a duration of 4 years in India. Well, it sounds good that we are able to complete such a professional medical course in just 4 years. When we think of the aftermath of degree course, we are left with 2 main options:
1) Get into a job
2) Study Further
Most students prefer 2nd option, i.e.- to study futher, either M.Pharm and Ph.D or M.S. and Ph.D abroad (though there are other options too!!!). But when it comes to a combination of work and foreign areas, i.e.- to work abroad after bachelor's degree, we find ourselves into a big trouble, especially trouble in getting into a job in countries like U.S.A etc. This is because the entry into pharmacy work profession after B.Pharm demands qualifying 2 exams:
1)FPGEE
2)NAPLEX
