Pharmaceutical Sciences Program

Curriculum

The curriculum provides a broad basic sciences foundation in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and pharmaceutics; integrates the essential contributions of the humanities, social sciences, and communications; and emphasizes several laboratory-based courses to develop and improve technical skills.

The first two years of the curriculum accommodate all the fundamental and interdisciplinary requirements of the core curriculum.  In the second through fourth years, the core distribution requirements and core elective are satisfied, along with the knowledge base needed for careers in the pharmaceutical sciences.  PH 399, Project in Pharmaceutics is a required research course; students are mentored by a faculty member or senior graduate student.  Also, opportunities are often available for students to conduct research as a laboratory technician.

The curriculum is flexible enough to permit students to choose elective credits in an area of special interest or to minor in a specific discipline.
