College of Pharmacy

Summary:

Our vision is to be the premier institution preparing pharmacy practitioners who demonstrate outstanding leadership and dedication to the medically underserved populations in our society, while striving to eliminate healthcare disparities. While the College of Pharmacy has played a major role in educating African American pharmacists, it has been integral in educating a diverse student population and remains committed to achieving excellence in all of its endeavors.

The mission of the College of Pharmacy is to prepare pharmacists to impact medically underserved communities, particularly African Americans, in an effort to eliminate health disparities through patient-centered care, community service and scholarly work. This mission is complementary to the university’s mission of “promoting a more just and humane society.” The College is committed to preparing all students for the broad range of careers in pharmacy by building a strong knowledge base in theory and practice, promoting critical thinking skills, and encouraging professional development and life-long learning.
