Community Pharmacy: An instance aimed at knowing the reality of the pharmaceutical professional and their work, learning about the operation of a community pharmacy and working together with the establishment's officials. The student must face real problems in the daily life of a professional and must bring with him the knowledge acquired during his academic career always under the support of his tutor. We have the option of a traditional pharmacy and a pharmacy oriented to phytopharmaceuticals. Research and analysis of historical pieces in the Pharmaceutical Museum: given the requirement presented to have a full sixth semester for the various internships or practices in other fields, we have found the unique opportunity for students from the fourth semester onwards to internalize the history of the pharmacy and the old apothecaries allowing the future pharmaceutical chemist to study the multiple artifacts and drugs collected after years of searches and donations from professionals. Therefore, the student will have the experience and the opportunity to analyze objects, creating files, bibliographic reviews, protocols, inventories and even the possibility of holding a workshop or seminar to promote the knowledge of pharmaceutical sciences to the public and its application.
