The Program
|
Our Doctor of
Pharmacy program is known as a “1-5”
program. This
means that 1 year of prerequisites are required before 5 years of
pharmacy school. The 5 years
of pharmacy school consists of 4 years of class work followed by the 5th
year being out on Rotations.
The prerequisite year, courses may be taken at UMKC or at any
other accredited colleges.

Rotations
consist of students stepping out of the classroom and into real world experience
at actual pharmacy sites being trained first hand by licensed pharmacists.
Each rotation covers a different area of pharmacy which not only allows
students the experience they need, but also allows students to see the wide variety
of careers that are offered to pharmacists.

Satellite Program

 |
We are in the third exciting year of
the satellite program offered in Columbia, MO on the University of Missouri (MU)
campus. Students attending school in Columbia will still be considered
UMKC students, the difference will be that those students classes will be held
in Columbia. Lectures are sent live via video and questions can be asked
from either campus to the instructor. The requirements for admittance and graduation will be the
exact same as well as the education fees. For more information:
