Ya hala (Welcome) to the Qatar University College of Pharmacy website. This academic program was initiated to help meet the country's growing demand for medication experts. The College of Pharmacy is the first and only pharmacy degree program in the State of Qatar.  It is also the seventh college at Qatar University, following approval from the Board of Regents under the leadership of the Heir Apparent H.H. Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani in June 2008.

The College of Pharmacy provides its graduates with the knowledge and skills necessary to become competent pharmacists, to meet the health care needs of this society. As a new College and the first of its kind in this country, we are undergoing constant change as we strive to achieve excellence while meeting our mandate.  We invite you to visit this web site frequently for updates. Changes of particular significance will be noted in the "College News" section below.
