Best Fellowships after Pharm D (Doctor of Pharmacy) and MBBS
Most of us
are aware that we can do for MD which is in abroad and some may be thinking of
doing PhD but other than this there is no idea on what to do after Pharm D so
in this blog we will say you something about fellowships or residency programs
that are in India
yes you heard
it right, fellowships or Residency programs are one of the golden
opportunity for the Indian PharmD graduates to specialize themselves and
gain a thorough knowledge on specialized departments like Oncotherapeutics or Nephrology.
Residency Program is a structured ,directed, salaried postgraduate training program in pharmacy practice that typically last one or two year. This program focuses mainly on development of competency skills and application of drug therapy knowledge in providing a broad scope of Pharmaceutical services to the patients as simple it is the program which expertise the pharm D graduates on specialised areas like Oncology, Nephrology etc...
These fellowships are generally
divided into two parts postgraduate year one and postgraduate year 2
so in the first year of the
program the PharmD graduates will be doing their normal internships from 2nd
year students will be trained under any specialized clinical area by the
dedicated clinical practitioners or Doctors.
During these Residency Program
students will be paid for their service and only if minimum number of students
will be taken for Residency Program may be one or two per year so there is a
high competition for this type of Fellowship programs.
