Additionally, the department offers a three-year postgraduate course that leads to a degree in Clinical Pharmacy (MPharm.

These include Master of Medicine (MMed) courses in Mental Health, Reproductive Health, Anaesthesiology and Critical care and Internal Medicine. We are also in the process of developing a PhD programme in Clinical Pharmacology.

Apart from teaching, the staff are involved in several research activities including clinical trials, and provision of clinical services at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, including the AMPATH haemato-oncology clinics. The Department collaborates closely with several other institutions for both research and training including Indiana, Purdue and Notre Dame Universities.
