Course progression map for 2016 commencing students

This progression map provides advice on the suitable sequencing of units and guidance on how to plan unit enrolment for each semester of study. It
does not substitute for the list of required units as described in the course 'Requirements' section of the Handbook.

P2001 Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Science

Specialisation - Formulation science

The placement of units may be rearranged to provide flexibility in choice of elective units and to support
sequencing for double degree courses but care should be taken to ensure sequenced units are maintained
in sequence.
