Abstract

The PHARMINE (“Pharmacy Education in Europe”) project studied pharmacy practice and education in the European Union (EU) member states. The work was carried out using an electronic survey sent to chosen pharmacy representatives. The surveys of the individual member states are now being published as reference documents. This paper presents the results of the PHARMINE survey on pharmacy practice and education in Slovenia. In the light of this, we examine the harmonisation of practice and education in Slovenia with EU norms.

Summary

Introduction

The PHARMINE (“Pharmacy Education in Europe”) consortium surveyed pharmacy practice and education in the European Union (EU) member states, including Slovenia, between 2008 and 2011, with an update in August 2017. The EU has an executive body, a legislative body and a judiciary—all features normally associated with government. Albeit, these bodies operate differently from those of an individual country. Theoretical part of postgraduate specialisation programmes is performed by HEI in cooperation with the Slovene Chamber of Pharmacies and the Slovenian Chamber for Laboratory Medicine. Such courses (but not the whole specialization) are open to graduates with a master degree in science as well as to pharmacists. 1st and 2nd year and topic of master thesis of Industrial pharmacy.
