Department Overview
The Department of Pharmacy Administration and Allied Health Sciences (PAHS) teaches students the knowledge, attitudes and skills required for contemporary clinical pharmacy practice. Lectures, multisensory programs offered by the Resource Center, as well as individual and group conferences with faculty, physicians and preceptors, give students knowledge of the principles and processes required to manufacture, stabilize, preserve, store and dispense both official and non-official dosage forms. Classroom and conference discussions offer the opportunity for students to develop their creative talents in compounding and formulating dosage forms.

On the graduate level, the objectives of the Department of Pharmacy Administration and Allied Health Sciences are to prepare students interested in Pharmacy Administration for positions in institutional pharmacy practice and in pharmaceutical marketing, and to equip students interested in the pharmaceutical sciences for careers in industry – particularly in the areas of industrial pharmacy and cosmetic sciences. Programs are designed to provide students with the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes to enable them to assume a leadership role in either an institutional or industrial setting.
