”Born To Explore”
Student Exchange Program (SEP) is IPSF’s largest project, offering professional pharmacy internships. Every year, more than 1000 students around the world are given the opportunity to experience pharmacy practice in more than 80 different countries.
EPSF and other member organizations organize the exchanges by finding host sites where the students are trained. The program runs throughout the year (Winter version and Summer version), but the majority of the exchanges take place between May and September. The length is usually 2 weeks up to 3 months with a minimum of 40 working hours per exchange, and possible host sites include:
- Community pharmacy
- Hospital pharmacy
- Clinical pharmacy
- Wholesale pharmacy
- Pharmaceutical
- industry
- Research at university
- Government or private health agencies.
The host may also provide room, board and/or pocket money in addition to the training site in order to help the applicant.
During exchange, participants can share and develop pharmaceutical knowledge and skills. In the same time, this is a unique opportunity to experience new cultures, try different food, meet friends, learn new language, visit beautiful places and enjoy your vacations by enriching yourself in different ways.
Through the past 5 years, EPSF has managed to provide abroad training opportunities for 200+ in more than 40 different countries.
We were also able to train 180+ from more than 50 countries around the world.
