Pharmacy students in
Jordan have so many potentials that need awareness, support and guidance to be
unleashed. Directing Students’ energies to achieve accomplishments will result
in positive outcomes for both; individuals as well as their communities. By
realizing the importance of pharmacy students' role in their communities and
the need for an entity to guide the students, Jordan Pharmaceutical
Students’Association (JPSA)was established. JPSA is a non-political,
non-profit, and non-religious organization that was founded in May 2007. JPSA
is affiliated to the International Pharmaceutical Students' Federation (IPSF),
which is the mother federation of all pharmacy students’ association. All
pharmacy students in different Jordanian Universities are eligible to join up
until 4 years of their graduation. Currently, JPSA is in 4 different
universities in Jordan including; The University Of Jordan, Jordan University
Of Science And Technology, The Hashemite University and Middle East University.
International Pharmaceutical Students’ Federation (IPSF): The International
Pharmaceutical Students’ Federation was founded in 1949 in London. The
Federation now represents around 350,000 pharmacy students and recent graduates
in 70 countries worldwide. IPSF is a non-governmental, non- political, and
nonreligious organization and is the leading international advocacy
organization of pharmacy students promoting improved public health through
provision of information, education, networking, and a range of publication and
