Pharmaceutical Students Association, Uppsala
- Pharmaceutical Students Association, Uppsala
The Pharmaceutical Students Association (in Swedish "Farmacevtiska Studentkåren", nicknamed "Farmis") is one of two students' unions at Uppsala University. While all other students of the university are members of the Uppsala Student Union, students at the Faculty of Pharmacy are organized in the Pharmaceutical Students Association.
The Association was founded in 1896 at what was then the Institute of Pharmacy in Stockholm. When the institute was moved and became part of the University of Uppsala in the 1960s, the students were allowed to retain their own student union.
As with all other student unions in Sweden, membership is compulsory for students enrolled in the relevant programme, and like other students at Uppsala University, those at the Pharmaceutical Faculty are also required to be members of one of the thirteen nations into which the student body is divided.
The house of the Pharmaceutical Students Association, "Pharmen" ("The Pharm") is located in the area known as Uppsala Science Park, next to the University Hospital, and was completed in 1992.
