Coursework and Clinic:
Integrating Practice with a Strong Foundation
Curriculum
Integrating evidence-based practice with a strong science and physiology foundation is the best preparation for practical application of pharmaceutical care in the service of patients and their families.
The School: Meeting Your Expectations
We train students to gain confidence in teamwork and interprofessional skills to provide the best therapeutic outcome for their patients.
Clinical Placements
The pharmacy practice experience provides students with an opportunity to apply and expand their knowledge and skills, while developing professional attitudes and behaviors in a variety of pharmacy settings. The student’s primary goal while at the practice site is to learn all aspects of pharmacy practice related to the site with the assistance of their preceptor.
A Day in the Life
Prospective students often ask us, “What is a day in the life of a student really like? How many hours do they study? Do they bring lunch or eat in the dining hall?” So we went straight to the source and asked some of our current students about a typical day. A Day in the Life gives you a glimpse of what you can expect.
