Addis Ababa University School of Pharmacy
Addis Ababa University School of Pharmacy – Check Below:
The School of Pharmacy (SoP) was established in September 1961 as a unit under the Faculty of Science of the then Haile-Selassie I University with the goal of producing pharmacists to handle the country’s pharmaceutical and health needs. Two years later, it was merged with the newly opened Institute of Medical Sciences to form the Faculty of Medicine. Later on, in 1978, the Department of Pharmacy was raised to a full-fledged Faculty status under the name of “School of Pharmacy” and stayed as such until 2010. Following the reorganization of the AAU, it joined three other Schools and Tikur Anbessa Hospital to form the College of Health Sciences.
The SoP is currently located in the New CHS building on the premises of the TASH. Prior to that, the School was at the Science Faculty, Arat Kilo Campus (1962-1978) and Amist Kilo Campus (1978-2011).
Vision
The School of Pharmacy aspires to be a center of excellence in pharmaceutical education, research and practice in Africa.
