Department Overview
The Department of Pharmacy and Administrative Science (PAS) 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
and Administrative Science 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.
