Pharmacy education has undergone several stages throughout history. Today, pharmacy education is implemented with a planning that meets the needs of a patient-oriented education system. The definition of pharmacy pharmacist in the world, which includes pharmacy service, drug consultancy, patient care services and clinical pharmacy issues, keeps up to date and this definition is left to the pharmacist who is the drug consultant of the patient instead of the pharmacist supplying medicine to the patient. Our program complies with the concept of pharmacist in this new definition.

People all over the world observe World Pharmacists Day on 25 September every year.
World Pharmacists Day is a celebration of every Pharmacist, Pharmaceutical Scientist, and others who are part of this field. Four million people are engaged in this profession around the globe.
World Pharmacists Day was launched by the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) in 2009. The main purpose behind celebrating this day is to highlight the major contributions of Pharmacists in the field of Health Improvement. These contributions focus on Health Promotion as well as Safe, Effective, and Cost-Effective Pharmacotherapy.
This year, the “World Pharmacists Day Theme” of the GAU Faculty of Pharmacy is “REACHING BEYOND THE ‘10 STAR PHARMACIST’ CONCEPT”.

“REACHING BEYOND THE ‘10 STAR PHARMACIST’ CONCEPT’ THEME underlines the “NEW ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE PHARMACISTS, RESKILLED UPSKILLED PHARMACIST COMPETENCY FRAMEWORK, ADVANCED PHARMACY PRACTICE SPECTRUM, and VALUE-CREATING PHARMACY SERVICES”.
“COGNITIVE PHARMACEUTICAL SERVICES, PROACTIVE CONTRIBUTION TO TEAMWORK IN HEALTHCARE, EVIDENCE-BASED IMPACT ON HEALTH OUTCOMES and INNOVATION-BASED PHARMAPRENEURSHIP (INNOVATIVE ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN PHARMACY PRACTICE)” are the “BUILDING BLOCKS”
