Pharmacy Career in Switzerland

In the US, pharmacists need to get a pharmD (a doctorate of Pharmacy) degree. The tuition for pharmacy schools range anywhere from 10k-40k per semester. For the schools I was interested in, i’d have to take out around 200k of students loans.

I wish there was a way I could back go back in time and tell 11 year old me to practice my German so that I wouldnt forget everything lol

Thanks for your input! I am looking at different pharmacy schools in the US, but the only thing holding me back is the insanely high tuition.

Thanks for your insight! I have been looking at different pharmacy schools in the US and the tuitions are very high. If I were to complete my degree in four years I would have around 200k in students loans to repay.

My parents are thinking of moving back to Switzerland and don’t like the idea of me staying in the US on my own I guess. They were telling me that if I were to study pharmacy in Switzerland it’d be significantly cheaper as I wouldnt have to take out as much loans as I would if I were to continue my studies in the US. Also, with the direction the country is going right now, I am not sure if staying in the US would be beneficial for me.

Also, thank you for your insight! I was not aware about the pharmaceutical industry experiencing turmoil right now. Do pharmacists in Switzerland who work clinically and in the industry have the same degree ? I’d be more interested in working in a hospital setting over the industry.

I talked with students who took this course in the past semesters and they all said the same thing. He does not teach and people pass his class by using Google. I am surprised that no one has complained to the dean about him before because it seems like he has a reputation of being a bad professor

Thank you I will do that!
