Prof.D in Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Administration

FAMU's pharmacy college awards the professional pharmacy doctorate from its Tallahassee campus. It describes itself as the only such program nationally that includes a fully accredited public health institute, giving students an unusual public health perspective. Practice centers in several Florida cities extend the college's reach and support its statewide commitment to teaching and community service. Pharmacists trained here can work in clinical care, research and many other settings. Students should expect four years of study. Graduates must pass licensing board exams before practicing, and certain positions require a further year or two of residency or fellowship training. Applicants can request information about admission through the college's website. The program's page also lists the related graduate degrees offered by the same college, including doctoral study in pharmaceutical sciences, for students weighing their options.
