Testimonials
Choosing a good graduate school was a big decision! I am happy that I joined 沙巴体育 College of Pharmaceutical Sciences (a.k.a MCOPS) to pursue my M. Pharm in Pharmaceutical Administration. Besides having high standards of teaching, my professors provided me opportunity to explore my ideas and think out of the box. They were always there to guide and help me no matter what. MCOP is a melting pot of cultures and was a major plus for learning new cultures and making new friends. I really miss the vibrant environment of MCOPS……
