Abstract

MARCHANTE CASTELLANOS, Pilar  and  MERCHAN GONZALEZ, Francisco. The career of Pharmacy in the Universidad de La Habana during the 1900-1901 and 1901-1902 courses. Rev Cubana Farm [online]. 2010, vol.44, n.3, pp.403-418. ISSN 0034-7515.

The 1900 to 1901 course was the onset of a new era in the Universidad de La Habana, since for the first time; its study plan was designed with a real educational sense and in reply to the urgent need of Cuban professionals. The author of such change was the distinguished Cuban education Enrique José Varona who was designed by operating United State Government to draw up the new study plan for the secondary and higher education naming as Public Instruction Secretary. The Varona's Plan transformed radically the structure of the Universidad de La Habana whose teachings were grouped in school systems pertaining to only three Faculties. Thus, from the 1900-19901 courses the known Pharmacy Faculty becomes one of the schools of the new Medicine and Pharmacy Faculty. Authors present the leading and general modifications introduced by Varona's Plan in study system of this Educational Center and the more relevant features of the academic life in Pharmacy School during 1900-1901 and 1901-1902 courses are detailed. Afterwards the university headquarter was moved to place where is nowadays, not much before the retirement of Americans operating authorities from the Cuban territory.

Keywords : Career of Pharmacy in Cuba 1900-1902; Pharmacy School in Cuba 1900-1902.
