Leadership | Excellence | Accountability | Diversity | Engagement | Relationship | Service MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN he College of Pharmacy had another successful year in 2015-2016. This was largely due to the effort made by the faculty, staff students and alumni. After completing a presentation to the Health sciences Howard University College of Pharmacy T board of trustees yesterday. I was told that we are doing a good job. We 4 had 6 patents confirmed, numerous publications and invitations to speak by our faculty. I truly agree with our students who say that HUCOP is one of the best kept secrets. The secret is out and I am very proud to show- case the great work that our faculty and students have accomplished during the past year in this report. This year I begin my tenure as dean of the college and it is with great joy I join this presti- gious institution. The convocation ceremony on September 23, 2016 brought back memories of commitment and resolve to do what it takes to serve humanity and move the profession forward. Most importantly, I look forward to serving the students, staff, faculty and alumni in any way I can. The work has begun and we are excited for 2016-2017. In the town hall on September 14, 2016, my vision for the College was clearly stated. We must build upon the successes of our great predecessors, Interim Dean Daphne Bernard and Dean Anthony Wutoh and carry the torch making sure the world knows we are here to serve, we are here to learn, and we are here to lead. Since we are raising leaders to change our world, it is imperative that we model the way as well. We must strive to 1. Improve College pride 2. Increase US presence and reputation 3. Increase funding streams/revenue 4. Increase collaboration To accomplish this we must: • Have a successful COP accreditation, strong academic program, strong research enterprise, strong and consistent clinical practices • Improve efficiency and effectiveness-implement structures and systems that work and improve the environment of learning and work • Engage faculty and staff and ensure that “The right people are in the right seats on the bus”-Good to great Students continue to have a variety of opportunities to participate in research, clinical train- ing, and community pharmacy initiatives to enhance the educational opportunities provided through the curriculum. Students are gaining real-world experience in international pharmacy through an international rotations. New partnerships were developed with Lilly and Pfizer. Three of our graduates were selected for the Lilly Fellowship and relocated to Indiana as part Howard University College of Pharmacy of the first phase. Of special note is that they began with 1 fellow and we were able to con- vert that into 3 fellows because of the quality of the candidates. As a result of the fellowship engagement with Pfizer, an unprecedented number of summer 2016 interns (7) were taken from HU and they all excelled. Quoting from the Provosts newsletter: “Pfizer Pharmaceuticals has committed to providing the initial seed funding of $40,000 per year over two years to de- velop the fellowship in regulatory affairs. The program is designed to help doctoral students | from the Pharmaceutical and Medical Sciences become expert investigators globally.” 2015 – 2016 Annual Report During the board of trustees meeting on September 22, 2016, I was asked to highlight key points that make HUCOP stand out, our leaders came up with this list: 1. We are situated in the nation’s capital; a. Giving us access to big hospitals, NIH, FDA, USP and pharmaceutical companies where students can have excellent experiential education. 5 b. Student access to government and federal agencies that impact pharmacy law and practice 2. We have a. 150 years of pharmaceutical education experience b.

I hope this email finds you well. Ms. Trudy mbarrassingly so, this email is actually long overdo! I meant to email you soon after it happened: what I’m referring to is my encounter with Ms. Trudy later that day of the Town Hall Meeting. What a coincidence. E 7 Her face is flashing through my mind as I type this because I vividly remember your story at the end of your presentation about how Ms. Trudy provided you with a pin on the day of your interview at 7 o’clock in the morning! I remember you saying that her positive energy, willingness to help and her smile made your day that day and that she was and is a Leader in your eyes. Well, I did what you suggested we students do should we ever bump into her: I thanked her sincerely for her hard work and diligence in all that she does here at HUCOP. And can you imagine what her reply was to me? She said, “You know I consider you all to be my children and I just try my best to make this place accommodating for you all so that you all can do well and succeed. Yes, I have children of my own, but when I’m here, you all are my children.” I was so touched by what she said that I continued to thank her even more profusely because I’d never seen a complete stranger, so-to-speak, express that much genuine concern over my welfare.

  • 2017-2018 Annual Report Our Pharmacy Community Consistently Strives for Excellence and We Are Proud of What We’Ve Accomplished in the Past Year
    THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF PHARMACY 2017-2018 Annual Report Our pharmacy community consistently strives for excellence and we are proud of what we’ve accomplished in the past year. Improving medications and medication-related health outcomes remains at the core of everything we do. Our students and alumni are motivated to make a difference, and as you can see from this report, they are doing just that. This year, our students were recognized on-campus and around the country for their dedication to this profession and making a difference in the lives of their patients. Two student organizations received university awards for their community service efforts and passion for enhancing diversity, while undergraduate and professional students were celebrated for their commitment to their studies, research and the community. Our students weren’t the only ones who experienced success this year; our faculty and staff expanded on the college’s strong research and outreach efforts. The college ranked 12th in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding and exceeded our seven-year average of peer-reviewed publications. Our partnerships flourished and we were able to provide more support to the community than ever before through presentations, live performances, screenings and medication therapy management reviews. Of course, none of this hard work would be possible if it weren’t for our incredible alumni, donors and friends. This year, donations to The Ohio State Fund for Pharmacy were up more than 7% and we reached our annual giving goal two months early. While the pages that follow showcase just a snapshot of all our accomplishments from the past year, I hope you feel a sense of Buckeye pride as you read through the report.

  • Pharmd/Phd) COMBINED-DEGREE OPTION in the COLLEGE of PHARMACY
    THE DOCTOR OF PHARMACY/DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (PharmD/PhD) COMBINED-DEGREE OPTION IN THE COLLEGE OF PHARMACY Summary The College of Pharmacy offers a combined-degree program in which a student already enrolled in the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) professional program at Purdue University can begin to accrue credits toward a PhD degree in one of the three departments in the College before earning the PharmD. Key elements of the program are: 1. No additional time will be required for a student to complete the requirements for the PharmD degree. 2. Through a judicious choice of electives and research rotations, a student can begin graduate coursework and research while still enrolled as a PharmD student, thus saving on the amount of time required for completing both programs separately. 3. Students will be eligible for admission into the Graduate School following satisfactory completion of four years of study (either a BS degree or two years of prepharmacy courses and two years of professional courses). 4. No curricular compromises in either program are necessary. 5. The student who successfully completes the combined-degree program will receive the PharmD degree followed by the PhD degree. Departments Involved All three departments in the College of Pharmacy (the Department of Industrial and Physical Pharmacy (IPPH), the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology (MCMP), and the Department of Pharmacy Practice (PHPR)) offer this combined-degree option. The program will be administered by the Associate Dean for Graduate Programs of the College of Pharmacy in cooperation with the Associate Dean for Professional Programs and the departmental graduate chairs.

    Appendix 10.2 Nontraditional Doctor of Pharmacy and Other Curricular Pathways 1) Nontraditional Doctor of Pharmacy Program Note: this program is being phased out and is no longer accepting applicants The Nontraditional Doctor of Pharmacy (NonT) program at Idaho State University is designed for practitioners holding a Bachelor’s degree in pharmacy and a valid U.S. or Canadian pharmacy license who desire the opportunity to earn the PharmD degree without returning full-time to a college campus. The curriculum includes 37 credits of didactic course work that is taught using a combination of DVDs, interactive web-based case studies, detailed syllabi and textbooks. Each course has an assigned instructor who is available to students via telephone or e-mail for questions or assistance. Upon completion of the didactic portion of the NonT program, students must perform 18 weeks of on-site experiential training (i.e., Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences - APPEs) in various clinical pharmacy disciplines. Dates to Begin the Program The NonT program does not follow the usual academic calendar of the university. Students will be enrolled and initiate courses once official notification of admission has been received. Requirements for Completion To remain accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), the didactic portion of the program must be completed within 3.5 years of the admission date. This admission date is given to each student upon beginning the program. Before beginning the experiential portion of the program, a second on-campus visit is required during which the student must complete a comprehensive examination of the didactic curriculum.
