Abstract
The MSc in Advanced Clinical Pharmacy Practice course is designed to prepare pharmacists to develop their career for senior leadership appointments. The course has three areas: Therapeutics, Health Service Quality Improvement, and Research. It is timely to review the MSc Advanced Clinical Pharmacy Practice considering: changes in the educational landscape of pharmacy with the development of Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) post-registration pathways; changes instigated by the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g. increased work pressures, remote working / learning); and increased prescribing capabilities of pharmacists, and prescribing qualification to become integrated within the undergraduate MPharm degree. The aim of this work is to review the current MSc Advanced Clinical Pharmacy Practice course by (i) engaging with key stakeholders, (ii) conducting a mapping exercise against the RPS domains, and (iii) identifying potential course content deliverable by the University of Strathclyde.
