Abstract
In 2007, Libyan International Medical University (LIMU) was established as the first private medical university in Libya with a clear mission to develop medical education to get competent graduates to satisfy community needs. Since then, Pharmacy Practice as well as Pharmacotherapeutics was encompassed in the LIMU Faculty of Pharmacy curriculum, and hence, the offered degree was the Bachelor of Pharmacy in a step that can be considered as one of the early initiatives toward the development of pharmacy education in Libya.
