The ACPE Board of Directors granted a six-year accreditation to the Doctor of Pharmacy Program at its January 2002 meeting.

The School of Pharmacy offers a four-year, full-time professional pharmacy program leading to the Doctor of Pharmacy degree.  Students are required to complete two years of pre-professional course requirements before entering the program.

The University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy is a national leader in preparing students for opportunities in pharmacy practice, research, and education.  Our innovative curriculum integrates science and practice, emphasizes student-centered learning, and gives our students the best possible preparation for pharmacy practice in any setting they choose.

Our students and student organizations are recognized for their active participation in university, community service, and professional programs at the local, state, and national levels.

The program is administered by Student Services
