IUP Pharmacy in Brief

As one of the oldest faculties at UGM, the Faculty of Pharmacy has a long history of graduating alumni with excellent performances in the area of pharmacy. A wide range of alumni workplaces covers community pharmacies/drug stores, primary healthcare, hospitals, pharmaceutical and herbal industries, non-government organizations (NGOs), and government bodies.

The Faculty of Pharmacy continuously maintains its tradition by graduating students with qualifications to study and work abroad. In 2021, the Faculty of Pharmacy launched its IUP to fulfill the global need of citizens that can work across borders. In recent years, many Indonesian pharmaceutical companies have been expanding overseas. Vice versa, many international companies (pharmaceutical industries or hospitals) are trying to enter Indonesia to compete for the Indonesian market. Thus, it is important to provide higher education of pharmacy targeting globally-oriented students.

The IUP Pharmacy is an integrated part of an undergraduate pharmacy program in the Faculty of Pharmacy UGM. It adopts outcome-based education to ensure its graduate quality. Its graduates are set to have the ability to pursue a further career in clinics, industries, or laboratories.
