A degree is a degree wherever its from... yes to some extent people might comment on where your degree is from, but at the same time someone who gets a really good degree from hertfordshire, who got really involved in the SU while there, and loads of clubs etc. will still look better than who went to london school of pharmacy and just did the degree and didnt get involved.
I work with someone who went to Bradford (not exactly the most fantastic of places!) who is a fantastic pharmacist...you wont qualify unless your good enough and so places will still be interested and jobs will be available

MPharm is what you need to be a pharmacist. MPharm courses are accredited and approved by the RPSGB to be eligible to do a pre-reg placement and the registration exam to qualify as a pharmacist.

Pharmaceutical Sciences degrees are just normal BScs - just like doing a BSc in Biological Sciences or Biochemistry or something. It's generally a 3 year course containing the scientific aspects of the pharmacy degree and doesn't entitle you to register as a pharmacist.
