With a population of more than 250 million, Indonesia needs more medical personnel to serve in many places around Indonesia. Unfortunately, the number of pharmacists in Indonesia is still quite low. Hence, UPH opens its Pharmacy program under the Faculty of Science and Technology (FaST) for Bachelor degree (S1) and Diploma (D3) degree. These future pharmacists are also equipped with three main labs; Pharmaceutical Technology Lab, Pharmaceutical Chemistry Lab, and Pharmacognosy lab.

In addition to that, the establishment of the Diploma program for Pharmacy studies also serves as a positive response towards Law No. 36 of 2014 on Health Workers which requires all pharmaceutical personnel to own at least a Diploma degree by 2020. The Diploma program for Pharmacy is accessible for prospective students who wants to work upon their graduation – surely, with a recognized work permit.

On the other hand, the Bachelor program for Pharmacy focuses on clinical pharmacy and natural pharmaceutical ingredients. The education and training given to these students enable the graduates of UPH Pharmacy to be a competent dialogue partner for doctors and patients regarding the rational use of medication.
