Groups
Engage, Contribute, and Lead: Chapters, Committees, and Special Interest Groups
At the Malaysian Pharmacists Society (MPS), we believe that the strength of our profession lies in the active participation of our members. To pursue our various objectives and address the diverse needs of the pharmacy sector, the Society has established a wide array of Chapters, Committees, and Special Interest Groups.
These groups serve as the heartbeat of our Society, offering members a platform to contribute their expertise while staying at the forefront of pharmaceutical advancements.
How to Access Our Specialized Groups
- Area Committees: Beyond the national level, each state in Malaysia has an Area Committee that conducts localized activities and meetings, allowing members to participate within their own communities.
- Student and Early Career Pathways: Undergraduate students can engage through MyPSA (Malaysian Pharmacy Students’ Association), while new practitioners can join the Young Pharmacists Chapter, which serves as a vital “nurturing station” for future leaders.
- Chapters, Committees and Special Interest Groups: Members can also serve on the platforms listed on this page that align with their expertise or passion.
