Networking and conferences
Nothing supports a good career like a network. However, maintaining a professional network once you have left University can be difficult, so at Newcastle we are going to invite you to a number of our events to ensure you have the most opportunities to meet up with old colleagues as well as meet new people to build your professional networks. Some of the events you will be invited to include:
Great North pharmacy careers conference
Pharmacy trainees are invited to attend the Great North Pharmacy Careers Conference each year and this provides an opportunity to network with colleagues from across the region as well as attend seminars, workshops and lectures about career opportunities nationally and internationally. Trainees are also invited to participate in the conference, providing an overview of their own experiences and answering questions from undergraduate students.
Interprofessional reflection conference
This conference was designed for medical, nursing, pharmacy, speech and language and clinical psychologists to attend to collectively reflect on their experiences. Delegates submit a range of work, including written case studies presented verbally or as posters, as well as paintings, poetry, and other forms of media to encourage understanding between professional groups.
Great North pharmacy research conference
This conference encourages pre-registration and foundation pharmacists to submit research projects and share best practice. Pre-registration pharmacists from all over the UK are invited to submit their projects for consideration and as graduates of North East England all Newcastle University graduates are encouraged and welcomed to attend.
School events
Throughout the year the School of Pharmacy hosts a number of open days, study days, seminars, workshops and social events relating to pharmacy education, science and practice. These seminars are free to attend for trainees, providing flexibility to engage with events that spark the individuals interest.
Continued access to undergraduate course content
To give you recent Newcastle graduates the best possible opportunity to maintain their knowledge and skills and build on them in practice, the School continues to provide access to the content of the MPharm programme, using their existing Newcastle University username and password.
Newcastle graduates also continue to have access to their Newcastle University email address which can be used for correspondence with staff and students, as well as giving them access to other Newcastle University resources such as online databases.
