Centers and Institutes

The College’s Academic Success Center (ASC) was developed to provide academic support to enhance student success in the various programs offered by the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.  Tutoring services are provided for discipline-specific courses that may not be available through the services provided by University Learning Commons.  Academic support is made available either in-person or virtually in an inviting and collaborative environment that encourages, promotes, and fosters independent learning skills

St. John's University acquired Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers School of Allied Health Professions in Fresh Meadows in March of 2007. The 40,000 square foot building, renamed the Dr. Andrew J. Bartilucci Center for St. John’s Dean Emeritus of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, is located approximately 1.5 miles from the University’s Queens Campus and will continue to offer existing Saint Vincent’s certificate programs.

St. John’s University’s Emergency Medical Services institute provides quality training to Paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) who treat a cross-section of patients primarily in pre-hospital settings. Paramedics and EMTs perform a number of medical services and are an integral part to the health care team.

St. John’s CPHS serves the needs of its diverse community while upholding its mission rooted in the Vincentian tradition of a “deep concern for the dignity of every person, especially the poor.”

In recognition of its mission as a metropolitan, Catholic, and Vincentian University, the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences created The Urban Pharmaceutical Care Research and Education Institute in 2004.
