Study at UTas leading to registration as a pharmacist:

The only registrable degree offered by the School of Pharmacy at the University of Tasmania is the Bachelor of Pharmacy (4 years). Some credit may be granted for students with previous study deemed equivalent, but in all likelihood - and due to the structure of our course, it may still take four years to complete, with lighter weighting in perhaps years 1 and/or 2.
