In an effort to constantly raise our benchmarks, we hope to bring international guest faculty this year to conduct short courses on clinical cases. I extend a warm welcome to our newest batch and wish them a bright future."
Dr. Saeed Ahmed Khan, Dean of the Dubai Pharmacy College commented, "Pharmacists play an important role as a vital link between the physicians and the patients. There is an acute shortage of skilled pharmacists in the region. As a result, we have been seeing a huge demand for the Pharmacy degree over the years. We extend our full support to the new students to maintain the high performance standards of the college and enable them to meet the needs of the community."
