One degree can make a world of difference to
your life
5
Core knowledge and hands on experience
  • Vocational skill development
  • Professional Experience Placements
  • Research Project
  • Industry Placement

    Liquid Chromatography facility
  • Pharmacy Virtual Practice Environments and
    MyDispense

6
Get more than a degree
  • Choose an elective in research or leadership
  • Complete a summer research scholarship
  • Undertake a professional experience placement
    overseas,
  • Join facultys student leadership program,
  • Run a club
  • Mentor a new student

7
To make a difference start here.
8
We might be one of the oldest pharmacy schools in
Australia, but we are also the most innovative
and globally recognised.

New entry requirements
10
Supplementary Information Form
  • This will replace the UMAT for entry into
    Pharmacy and Pharmacy/Commerce

    www.pharm.monash.edu.au/courses/pharmacy/sup-infor
    mation-form
  • or can be completed online at
    www.adm.monash.edu/admissions/vtac
  • All VTAC applicants (international and domestic)
    must complete
  • Applicants must still list pharmacy on their VTAC
    preference list

11
How will the form be used?
  • Model answers will be used to give applicants a
    rating for their form
  • Rating will be used to re-rank applicants who are
    middle-band or borderline cases.
  • All re-ranked applicants will still need to meet
    the published minimum prerequisite study scores.
  • The Supplementary Information Form is not to be
    used for the purpose of special consideration.

12
What will the form ask?
13
Changes to prerequisite requirements
  • Pharmacy, pharmacy/commerce and pharmaceutical
    sciences have all had their prerequisite subject
    scores lowered
  • VCE 30 in English (ESL) or 25 in any other
    English, and 25 in chemistry, and 25 in
    mathematical methods (CAS) or specialist
    mathematics.
  • IB 4 in English SL or 3 in English HL or 5 in
    English B SL or 4 in English B HL, and 4 in
    chemistry SL or 3 in chemistry HL, and 4 in
    mathematics SL or 3 in mathematics HL.
  • Assessment last year showed students with lower
    scores still had high enough ATARS to be
    competitive for these courses.
  • We dont expect this will affect the clearly-in
    ATAR score in 2013
