What is the FIP Academic Institutional Membership?
The FIP Academic Institutional Membership, or FIP AIM, is a Membership that allows Faculties and Schools of Pharmacy to become inter-connected on a global platform of discussion, leadership and shared challenges and successes. The FIP AIM focuses on the parallel evolution of Faculties and Schools of Pharmacy alongside the ongoing changes in pharmacy practice, science, research and their respective funding. All Faculties and Schools of Pharmacy from around the world are welcome to apply for a FIP AIM. These Academic Institutes are represented by their Deans, Vice Deans and other Decision Makers within the Membership activities such as online discussion platforms and the annual International Dean’s Forum at the FIP Congress.
Join us at the Global Dean's Forum at the FIP Congress
Each year at the FIP World Congress of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, the FIP AIM hosts a Dean’s Forum, inviting all representative Deans from the Faculties and Schools within the Membership to meet each other and discuss current and relevant topics in an international arena. Expert Speakers from around the world as well as innovative interactive opportunities are featured over the 2-day event.
Collected from a world-wide survey of leading Deans and Academics, the topics for 2010 will cover:
- Partnering for Resources – Public/Private; Industry; Government
- Faculty Strategy – Multidisciplinary approaches
- Quality Assurance – staff, students, curriculum
- Hot Topics/Round Table Discussions
This year the Programme for the Global Dean’s Forum will take place between 29-31 August and also extend to other Sessions and Events throughout the Congress, such as the Global Consultation for Pharmacy Education and networking social events, completing a comprehensive programme in the engaging city of Lisbon, Portugal.
The full Dean’s Programme (including the Dean’s Forum, speakers and special events) for the FIP Congress in Lisbon will be available soon - check back regularly to the AIM site for further information.
