Curriculum
The Pharm.D. curriculum consists of six years of study. The first two years are called Pre-Professional years and most of the classes are offered by the School of Arts and Sciences rather than the School of Pharmacy, and the class content provides basic knowledge in chemistry, biology, economics, psychology, human physiology, physics, and mathematics; which aid in professional studies. Upon successful completion of the first and second pre-professional years with satisfactory scholastic standing of a cumulative GPA of no less than 2.8, students must go through an interview process in order to continue their study. The third through sixth years are called Professional years and most classes are offered by the School of Pharmacy faculty, with the exception of Introductory Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
