Faculty of Pharmacy

Around 500 students of Pharmacy at the University and other Spanish and foreign faculties are meeting this week at the Faculty of Pharmacy, in Burjassot-Paterna Campus to celebrate the 3rd Congress of UV Pharmacy Students (1st International Edition) and Conference on Nutrition and Cooperation Toward Development. This is an opportunity to learn about the research being done in the departments of the Faculty, through Master students and also the research activities that are carried out within the different courses.

After three editions, the Congress of UV Pharmacy Students is consolidated as an important activity in the agenda of Pharmacy students. This year there are 389 participants who will present 89 posters and 38 oral presentations. After evaluation by the scientific committee and peers, the work will receive prizes given by sponsors (scientific societies such as SEP, AeTox, SEF, SECF and professional world as Cofares Training Institute).

Moreover, the Conference organized around Nutrition and Cooperation Toward Development has attracted 232 students. During 12 and 13 March there will be lectures and panel discussions related to the career of the students and faculty around issues of health, especially linked with Pharmacy and Nutrition, but a multidisciplinary, as studies are taught at the School.

The organisation also represents a very enriching activity for students participating, since they acquire transferable skills in demand by the labour world (communication skills, organising tasks and times, teamwork). The conference counts on the financial support, in addition to the awards, by the University through the University Extension Committee of the Faculty, ADR, SEDI, the UdIE, associations of students of the Faculty (AVEF, ADINU) , professional associations (MICOF, COFCS) and others such as FarmaFIR, MMedia and Farmamundi.
