The Changing Face of Pharmacy
Pharmacy is a frontier ripe with possibility – a universe of science and business in which to build something more, something bigger, something no one has imagined before. We see the core Pharm.D. curriculum as a base for exploration and innovation — for elevating, enlarging and enhancing the role the pharmacist in an ever more challenging health care landscape.
Our programs prepare future pharmacists to pursue that dream in a collaborative, interdisciplinary environment that encourages ingenuity and innovation. By connecting the nation’s top minds in entrepreneurship, communications, health sciences, and other disciplines with leading pharmacy practice faculty, we give students the opportunity to discover and realize true, innovative change. Our collaboration with the acclaimed Darla Moore School of Business provides strong student support and entrepreneurship training.
Through KPIC, students can:
- learn the entrepreneurial business side of pharmacy »
- explore non-traditional career paths in pharmacy »
- participate in advanced sterile drug compounding training »
- apply for scholarships and stipends »
- ... and more.
