Student 's Message

[Students currently enrolled at this university (1st year, Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Country of origin: Republic of Korea) *As of May 2023*]

The reason why I decided to study abroad at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Hokkaido Medical University is that it has a high pass rate for national examinations and the surrounding environment is suitable for studying. At university, students learn the basic pharmaceutical knowledge and communication skills necessary to become a pharmacist. After graduation, I would like to go on to graduate school, join a global pharmaceutical company, and be involved in new drug development.
