Pharmacy Experiential Education Programme (PEEP) The Pharmacy Experiential Education Programme (PEEP) under the Bachelor of Pharmacy curriculum is well-structured with experiential learning experience. Students in their second and third years of study shall complete on-site placements in different pharmacy practice settings outside the classrooms under the supervision of pharmacist preceptors throughout regular semesters and in the summer. Building on the knowledge taught in the introductory pharmacy courses in Year 1, our experiential education enriches the pharmacy curriculum with perspectives of contemporary pharmacy practice in the local setting and enables students to apply and expand upon the knowledge and skills acquired from the didactic coursework in the pharmacy curriculum. Our experiential education represents a cumulative learning experience that prepares students for more advanced practice experience in the clerkship and Enrichment Modules during their final year of study. In addition to competencies as pharmacists, PEEP is also intended to offer students longitudinal exposure to the practice settings where they can develop personal and professional attributes such as professionalism, ethics, problemsolving skills, teamwork, and commitment to lifelong learning. Placement, Clerkship and Research Project Opportunities for Interprofessional Learning The programme ensures that students are adequately prepared to provide expert service at the community level through placement openings provided by several largest community pharmacy chain stores in Hong Kong. As part of the curriculum, each pharmacy student will have the chance to gain work experience in various pharmacy settings during the term time. Students will rotate among different roles, from the hospital pharmacy, community pharmacy to any term position within the pharmaceutical industry for at least one week in each setting during their final year of study. In addition, students will have the opportunity to carry out a research project in a specialised area of their choice, ranging from pharmaceutics, pharmacology, pharmacy practice to clinical pharmacy, under the supervision of our academic staff. This research experience will be critical for the future career of pharmacy students in both the academic and pharmacy workplace. The programme offers students invaluable opportunities for interprofessional learning throughout the four-year curriculum, including a patient care project (PCP) and interprofessional education as well as a collaborative practice (IPECP) with students from the Medicine, Nursing and Chinese Medicine programmes. These interprofessional learning activities will utilise the expertise of students from diverse backgrounds and foster teamwork, cooperation, and communication between different healthcare professionals in the future. 08 UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS ｜ 2024
