It also offers mentoring through Years 3 and 4 of the students' pharmacy degrees, with a view to one ultimately accepting an internship in the Kerikeri area.

Applicants must be a New Zealand citizen or New Zealand Residence Class Visa Holder, a third year pharmacy student at the University of Otago in the year of tenure, a good communicator with a passion for rural community pharmacy, and the ability to successfully complete their Bachelor of Pharmacy degree.
