Updating the BSC medical science program plans was approved of by the university council, and a pharmacy doctor program would be introduced soon, said Professor Dr. Abdullah Al-Bekairy, dean of pharmacy college. The updating would be based upon the best five American universities in the USA, added he. This came within the context of a plan to keep up with the international developments in pharmaceutics education. “The plan helps meet the needs of the labor market; goes in line with the university orientation to be distinctive; and mirrors desire to develop academic plans,” he noted.
