Curriculum | Our curriculum is a semester-based schedule with concurrent semester-long courses. Since the entire curriculum is housed within the School of Pharmacy, there is no risk of conflicting class schedules. Experiential components are integrated into the first two didactic years of study, and the third year is devoted entirely to advanced clinical experience.

Interprofessional Cooperation | At Pacific, we emphasize the integration of concepts, as well as teamwork and collaboration among students. As one of several health professions programs offered at Pacific's Hillsboro Campus, home to the College of Health Professions, we also emphasize interprofessional cooperation among the healthcare team.

Launch View Campus Experience

The School of Pharmacy and our PharmD program are fully accredited by the ACPE.

Career Preparation | The PharmD program is designed to meet educational requirements for our PharmD graduates to take the NAPLEX and MPJE board examinations and apply for a pharmacist license that is required for employment in a patient care setting and is sufficient to meet licensure requirements in all 50 States to practice as a registered pharmacist.

We admitted our first class in Fall 2006. Today, our average class size is about 98 students.
