Dean’s Welcome

Welcome to the UMKC School of Pharmacy! Students are integral to everything we do at the School.  We are committed to providing an atmosphere that promotes life-long learning by helping students develop both the knowledge and skills needed to be a pharmacy professional in an ever-changing health-care environment.

Our faculty and staff are committed to the education and overall success of our students.  We have a low student to faculty ratio which provides more individualized attention and a cutting-edge curriculum that will position you to be a leader in the profession.

Strong alumni support of our programs gives students an opportunity to get real-world experience and the chance to network with professionals who span the spectrum of pharmacy careers.

So whether you are considering practice in a community or hospital setting, in industry or long term care, or any one of the many other practice areas available in our profession, UMKC is the place for you.  UMKC is an exciting place to pursue both an education and a pharmacy career.  I invite you to browse through our web pages to learn more about the School of Pharmacy and the high quality programs we offer.
