| Curriculum | The program of study after admission to the College takes four years to complete. Students study pharmaceutical, biomedical and clinical sciences, research methodology, statistics and communication skills. Students also complete a research project. Throughout the four years of the program students are involved in patient care related activities with the final year being almost entirely devoted to full-time advanced pharmacy practices experiences in a wide variety of practice settings (e.g., community pharmacies, ambulatory care clinics, hospital pharmacies, pharmaceutical companies and within governmental service). Some examples of advanced pharmacy practice experiences include: community and hospital pharmacy practice, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, adult internal medicine, pediatric medicine, gerontology, pharmacy administration, nuclear pharmacy, home health care, drug information services, clinical pharmacokinetics, parenteral and enteral nutrition, and the Food and Drug Administration. |
| Additional Requirements | The University of Michigan is an equal opportunity, nondiscriminatory institution. Students are admitted to the Pharm.D. program after completing at least 80 semester hours of pre-professional study in a non-pharmacy college. At least one year of prepharmacy study must be completed at an accredited U.S. or Canadian college or university. Although these are the minimum requirements for admission, approximately 70% of applicants have earned a B.S. or B.A. degree prior to matriculation into the program. Application to the Pharm.D. program is made through PharmCAS and a supplemental application, available on the College website. Admission is based upon multiple criteria. Although an emphasis is placed on overall college GPA (specifically, grades earned in mathematics and the physical and biological sciences) and PCAT scores, many other factors are considered, such as: the required personal statement; previous health care patient experience; the academic strength of institutions attended; life and work experiences; a desire to make a difference in the lives of others; letters of recommendation; and interviews. All speakers of English as a second language must also demonstrate proficiency in both spoken and written English. Minimum TOEFL/TSE and MELAB/Oral Exam score requirements are available from the College. |
