Years 2-5: Students complete Doctor of Pharmacy Program

Each program requires 8 credit hours of electives. Students will be able to count the 8 credit hours of electives they take in both the MSPS and Doctor of Pharmacy programs, decreasing the overall course load for the two programs by 8 credit hours. Student must complete at least 4 credits that are approved as electives for the MSPS program and at least 4 credits of elective that are approved for the PharmD program. PSCI 515: New Product Development, a required course for the MSPS program, must be taken as 2 of the 4 elective credits for the PharmD program. Also, during years 2-5, student must complete one of these two options:

1) Co-ops in the pharmaceutical Industry. These would be a total of approximately 4 months of full time work, scheduled during the first summer before starting in the PharmD program, and during the subsequent summers or during final year as 1 or 2 of the rotations required for the Doctor of Pharmacy program.

2) A lab-based research project with a Campbell faculty member. This would typically be done during the summers, but work on the research project can continue through years 2-5.
