U.S.-Thai Consortium for the Development of Pharmacy Education in Thailand
The Consortium was created in 1993 at the invitation of the Pharmacy Education Consortium of Thailand as a means of enhancing pharmacy education in public universities in Thailand. Member schools and colleges of pharmacy from the United States and Thailand have agreed to create educational opportunities for Thai pharmacy faculty members to study in the U.S., for short-term training opportunities in the U.S., for student and faculty exchanges, and for other cooperative efforts to enhance pharmacy practice and education.
The Consortium holds a biannual meeting, alternating between the United States and Thailand. The 2008 meeting will be held July 15-18 on the campus of the University of Madison-Wisconsin. The meeting will be hosted by the UW School of Pharmacy as part of its quasquicentennial celebration. The signing of an agreement to extend the Consortium will be a featured event at the meeting.
