PHARMD CURRICULUM
Integration
The professional program curriculum consists of an integrated sequence of required courses designed to be completed in consecutive academic years. Since the curriculum is revised periodically, students who take more than the required number of years to complete the professional program normally will be required to complete the curricular changes applicable to the class in which they graduate.
