Malaysia
Students who have completed their second year of study of their Bachelor of Pharmacy degree at the International Medical University (IMU) in Malaysia, can transfer to the BPharm degree at Otago with direct entry into the third year of the four year degree, subject to completing a short (2 week) bridging course.
Interested in talking to IMU students who have already transferred to Otago? Feel free to email us if you have any questions about coming to Otago.
