School of Pharmacy Experiential Education

Experiential education is a critical part of the three-year PharmD program at Pacific University's School of Pharmacy.

We aim to connect students with high quality experiential rotations that develop practice-ready, compassionate, and innovative pharmacists prepared for future pharmacy careers.

Experiential education is split into two parts — students complete Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experience components of the curriculum throughout their first and second school years. The third year is devoted entirely to Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPE).

Experiential education benefits both students and preceptors. Students gain practical skills and exposure to pharmacy practice settings. Preceptors serve as mentors and our high-quality students make experiential education a rewarding experience for everyone.
