The Medway School of Pharmacy is a school of pharmacy in South East England. Established in 2004, the School is the result of a unique collaboration between the University of Greenwich and the University of Kent.〔 Its campus is part of a shared facility on Chatham Dockyard in Medway, Kent. ==History== Medway School of Pharmacy was established as a collaboration between the British universities of Kent and Greenwich, in response to a "shortage of qualified pharmacists" in the south east of England.〔 The School admitted its first students after it received approval from the RPSGB. In September 2004:〔 its first graduates completed Foundation degrees in June 2007 and in July 2008, the first cohort of MPharm students graduated from the school.〔 The campus was originally the home of the former HMS Pembroke Royal Navy barracks. In 1994, the University of Greenwich established a campus on the upper level, investing heavily over the next decade to improve and expand its facilities. In 2003, architects RMJM started work to create a visually striking shared campus which combines the historic nature of the site with the best of British contemporary architecture. In particular, the Grade II listed Drill Hall is a state-of-the-art learning resource center, incorporating a library with teaching space and ICT facilities. Medway may be a location name, but it is actually an administrative area comprising the various towns as they are known locally, namely Chatham, Rochester, Gillingham and Strood and takes its name from the strategically placed river set half way between London and the Channel ports. In the early days the River Medway and its banks saw Roman Legions and 8th Century visits from the Danes. The Normans then fortified Rochester giving them control of the river. The area then became a major ship-building port and Chatham Dockyard was formed in 1547. Sheerness on the Isle of Sheppey was also developed to complement the Medway naval activities. It had a deep port and was a good vantage point for setting defense guns.〔http://www.msp.ac.uk/about/history/index.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Medway School of Pharmacy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
