The total duration will be 7 years (3 years diploma + 4 years degree). 2+2 Twinning programmes (popular option in Malaysia) A popular option in Malaysia is that students join one of Malaysia’s private institutions for the Bachelor of Pharmacy (Hons) programme for 2 years and transfer to a respective foreign university overseas partner to complete the degree in another 2 years.
