The values that underpin both the formation of our institutional culture and the assurance of quality in our education, research and community service activities guide our approach to our students, academic/administrative staff and stakeholders, as well as our management processes and academic activities.

The core values of our faculty are set out below:

Commitment to Ethical Values: We act in accordance with the principles of academic integrity, professional ethics and social responsibility. We aim for our students to become trustworthy, conscientious pharmacists capable of making ethical decisions throughout their professional lives.

Respect for Human Rights and Patient Rights: We recognize human rights and patient rights as universal values and support a pharmacy practice that respects the dignity, privacy and freedoms of the individual.

A Culture of Free, Critical and Participatory Thinking: We encourage academic freedom, critical thinking and the generation of innovative ideas. We aim to create a democratic academic environment in which our students and academics can freely conduct research, question and contribute.

Participatory, Transparent and Accountable Governance: We value the participation of all stakeholders in decision-making processes and embrace transparency, openness and accountability as fundamental principles of management. We strengthen a culture of trust, communication and collective wisdom in the governance of the faculty.
