Curriculum
The College of Pharmacy offers an original and progressive curriculum that blends classroom and practice experiences to give graduates the knowledge, skills and professional attitude to succeed as a pharmacist. Student centered learning is a critical component as at least 30 percent of pharmacy courses are offered through active learning exercises. The pharmacy curriculum emphasizes the College’s core values of competence, curiosity, communication, caring, character, and community and uniquely offers an education that optimizes interprofessional learning experiences. The curriculum is organized to give each year a central theme that serves as a foundation for each successive year. Courses are developed and integrated to establish the annual theme and to allow the opportunity for students to learn information in the classroom and then to apply that knowledge and to practice pharmacy skills in experiential sites.
The College of Pharmacy curriculum is undergoing a transformation. The transformation will provide better opportunities for interprofessional training of students, and encourage faculty to explore and integrate new technology and pedagogical methods that enhance content delivery and student engagement.
In addition, the academic calendar was replaced with a new calendar that has 16-week semesters, a summer semester and a “Maymester” term. The summer semester will start the new academic year.
The complete transition will occur over a period of several years.
