Pharmacy

Today, more than at any time in the history of pharmacy, the profession needs bright, enthusiastic young students to lead the career to even greater accomplishments. In fact, Omani Nationals who are recruited, educated and trained in their homeland in the field of pharmacy are more stable and productive since such graduates will be better able to understand the environment and work efficiently under its conditions.

Our history

The Ministry of Health (M.O.H.) established Oman Assistant Pharmacy Institute (OAPI) which started teaching the diploma program since 1991.   starting from the academic year 2013/2014 the Directorate General of Human Resource Development through the M.O.H and according to the Health Vision 2050 has started the implementation of Oman Pharmacy Institute (OPI) which offers Bachelor degree in pharmacy and which was able to prepare graduates capable to function in accord with the requirements of a specific up to date provision.
