Abstract
Talent training has been emphasized in China’s national development. Training an excellent pharmaceutical professional has far-reaching significance for promoting rational use of drugs, ensuring safe drug use, and improving the quality and safety of medical treatment. The internship program is an important part of a pharmacy major that serves to develop students’ practical skills. In this paper, we propose a combination of outcome-based education (OBE) and case-based learning (CBL) in pharmacy internships to promote critical thinking and independent learning among students and ensure the sustainable development of pharmacy education.
