The college of Pharmacy at An-Najah National University was established in 1994/95 in order to meet the demands for professional pharmacists and a clinical pharmacy practice in Palestine. In this faculty, students are prepared for jobs in the pharmaceutical industry in Palestine and the region, with a thorough understanding of diseases and medications. Training and research are conducted in modern, well-equipped laboratories. This is a five-year program (10 academic semesters) leading to a B. Sc. in Pharmacy.

The college depends on a group of highly qualified full-time professors, most of whom are graduates of universities from the U.S.A. or U.K. Approximately 80-100 outstanding students from Palestine and the Gulf countries are enrolled in the college annually. The total number of students in the college, at all levels, is approximately 500.  More than 300 students have graduated so far from the college and most of them are working in highly esteemed jobs in both the private and public sectors. Some of the graduates are pursuing their postgraduate studies in different fields of pharmacy in North American and Jordan universities. The college is working now on developing the curriculum so as to maintain the high standards in pharmacy education. Also, the college employs the top students as teaching and research assistants. This then helps them to pursue their higher education abroad.

The students must complete a total of 1440 hours of clerkship and training at community or hospital pharmacy.
