This program is designed to lead you to the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree. You?ll complete 98 credits as an undergraduate student, apply for pharmacy school, and finish the remaining 28 credits as a Doctor of Pharmacy student. Your first three years will involve studying core requirements, many of your major requirements, and general electives. Most students will be awarded the BS-Pharmaceutical Sciences degree after four years of higher education (3 years of undergrad + 1 year of PharmD). After three more years in the PharmD program, you?ll then get your Doctor of Pharmacy degree.
It is worth noting that if you are?not?accepted into the PharmD program, you will be on track to earn a BS-Biomedical Sciences degree after four years of undergraduate coursework. Students who?are?accepted to the PharmD program (and thus, earn their Bachelor?s ?in Pharmaceutical Sciences), may not double-major in biomedical sciences due to the substantial content overlap between these two programs.
