The University of Louisiana at Monroe College of Pharmacy offers a four-year Doctor
of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree. To be eligible to apply to our program, applicants must
complete approximately two to three years of undergraduate courses (a minimum of 67
semester credit hours), which can be taken at any accredited college or university.
Upon admission to the professional program, students begin three years of classroom,
laboratory, and practice instruction at 四色AV, followed by one year of experiential
rotations at locations around the state in which students train in a variety of practice
settings.
Because of a growing need for pharmacy profession leaders to be proficient in a variety
of areas, the 四色AV College of Pharmacy offers combination degree programs for the professional
pharmacy student to graduate with both the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree and
the听Master of Business Administration听(MBA) degree or the PharmD degree and the Doctor of Philosophy(PhD) degree in Pharmacy.听
In addition to completing the curriculum of the PharmD program, the combination degree
student will also complete the curriculum of the chosen second degree program.听 Some
coursework will overlap between the two degree programs.听 The combination degree program
requires a high level of academic commitment due to the additional responsibilities
of working simultaneously on two rigorous academic degrees. More information regarding
our combination degree programs can be found here.
