Pharmacy Student Prize Giving and Industry Networking Event December 2018

The School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences hosted its annual prize giving ceremony on Wednesday the 5th of December in the Senior Common Room, Front Square. This year, and thanks to a generous sponsorship by Alexion Pharmaceuticals the student prize giving ceremony doubled up as a networking event with our colleagues from the Pharmaceutical Industry.
The Prize Giving Ceremony is a celebration of the outstanding performance of the TCD Pharmacy students in their academic achievements in the M.Pharm Degree course. Prizes are awarded for excellent academic performance in particular areas of Pharmacy study. All prizes are valued by the School as a statement of support for our students and by the recipient for the recognition it offers for their achievement.
The School acknowledges the generosity of all our sponsors and congratulations to all recipients on their awards and their academic achievements.
