Every day, millions of people around the world are able to live happier, healthier, longer lives thanks to medications managed by trusted, expert pharmacists. If you like working with people and learning how medications can prevent and treat health conditions, pharmacy could be the right path for you. This program, which you can start as a first-year student, leads to a graduate-level degree for a career as a pharmacist-consistently named as one of the most respected health care professions.
What will I learn?
You'll start with required courses focused on chemistry, biology and the pharmacy profession. As you advance into the doctorate, you’ll learn more about physiology, how to assess patients and your responsibilities as a pharmacist. With a solid foundation in place, you’ll learn about specialties such as cardiovascular health, reproductive health and infectious diseases, to name a few. You’ll also spend time in our simulated pharmacies and practice labs, building your knowledge (and working on your people skills) as you get ready to practice your craft.
