I was wondering if there are any good international opportunities for pharmacy students (maybe pharmaceutical companies or any other good opportunities).

Traditionally, USA not been very active in exporting as home market so large. US companies abroad tend to employ cheaper locals and just have the boss as an American. I never once met a sales rep from USA while working around the Caribbean. History is responsible as UK, France, Holland etc still tend to export to old colonies.
There has also been the trend to production being transferred to cheaper areas. Ireland has large pharma industry as is English speaking and convenient for exports to Europe.

UK pharma production has mainly been transferred to South Africa, India and Eastern Europe.

Best bet would be to contact overseas based companies exporting to US.

You could do the student exchange through IPSF. It's usually over the summer and I believe the deadline to apply is in December. This program does not pay you, but it provides room and board.
