Summary of consultation with organizations representing local production, services, professions
The meeting was held in the presence of representatives of the University of Calabria (delegate of the Rector and delegates of the Faculty concerned) and representatives of social partners.
As for the Degree Course in Scientific Information Drug and Health Product, the same sums up the cultural interests already expressed nell'omologo Degree in Scientific Information on Drugs and two Master of Science in Environmental Toxicology and Technology of the Faculty Cosmetics and normed by DM 509/99, deleted in the past two training courses being adapted to the educational DM270/04.
We must now show how the activities of the Community Pharmacy not only invests the sphere of dispensing the drug as a treatment provisions, but the entire scope of products that tend to preserve the health and well-being also to the environment. This especially in light of the device that places the law 69/09 of Community Pharmacy as a health center within the integrated network of critical care services to the area.
It follows that this expansion of the powers invested in community pharmacy, consequently, must involve the professional who, traditionally dedicated to scientific information on the drug, sees today expanded its professional commitment to action. Hence the extent of the condition of the Degree Course in Scientific Information on Pharmaceuticals in medical representatives and Health Products. Following a structured discussion, the two sides expressed their opinion in favor of the proposed transformation of the Degree in accordance with the Ministerial Decree 270/04.

The training includes specific subjects that provide a good specific preparation in the chemical pharmaceutical, pharmacological and pathological to assess issues related to the use of medicines and to give correct information on the same scientific, pharmaceutical expertise in biology, to properly scientific information on the implications for the use of compounds used in cosmetics and dietary supplements herbal in nature.
The training is supplemented with lessons that develop sufficient skills in marketing and business management useful for inclusion in the workplace.
Bearing in mind also the employment opportunities offered within the Community, are provided training to acquire a good knowledge of written and spoken English.
The course normally lasts three years and corresponds to the attainment of 180 credits (ECTS).
The course consists of theoretical courses (lectures) and other practical purposes, with exercises in the classroom or lab.
At least 60% of the total time is reserved for personal study or other individual learning activities.
Learning outcomes, expressed by the descriptors of the European qualification
Knowledge and understanding (knowledge and understanding)
Graduates in medical representatives and Health Products must have acquired the basic cognitive tools to understand the sources of information to the advanced level of specific areas of expertise that is about the drug and health products. Furthermore, it must possess sufficient knowledge of methodological and operational aspects of basic sciences and the ability to use this knowledge to interpret and describe problems in their field of study.
In particular, the graduate knows the basics of physics, general chemistry and organic chemistry with the addition of a solid knowledge of medicinal chemistry and biochemistry required to:
• recognize the different classes of drugs, metabolism, interactions between drug and molecular target;
• understand the fundamentals of the techniques used in the formulation of pharmaceutical and health products.
