Dean鈥檚 Welcome
¡Bienvenidos! And thank you for your interest in pursuing pharmacy education at 成人头条! The 成人头条 School of Pharmacy is the first pharmacy school/college on the Texas – Mexico border that is not a cooperative program, and one of only a handful of pharmacy school/colleges at a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) nationwide.
The 成人头条 School of Pharmacy is committed to 成人头条’s twin goals of access and excellence through its admissions process, curriculum, clinical experiences, and community engagement. The integration and implementation of the 成人头条 motto is captured within the proposed program’s vision and mission statement. The 成人头条 School of Pharmacy vision is to be a leading Hispanic-Serving Institution in the advancement of pharmacy education through Innovation, Diversity, Engagement, Access, and Leadership. The program’s mission is to achieve access, excellence, and impact by transforming pharmacy education, patient, care, community engagement, research, and leadership within a binational border population and beyond.
In May 2021, the 成人头条 School of Pharmacy graduated its first student cohort and looks forward to continuing to prepare capable and bilingually trained pharmacists to serve our community and beyond. Alongside our inaugural cohort’s graduation milestone, after a rigorous six-year accreditation process dictated by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), we are proud to also announce the 成人头条 School of Pharmacy’s Doctor of Pharmacy Program has advanced from Candidate to Accredited Status. The six-year accreditation process required the 成人头条 School of Pharmacy to demonstrate that it has the capacity, capability, and resources to institute a successful and competitive pharmacy program.
The 成人头条 School of Pharmacy is in a position to make a significant contribution to meet the health needs and challenges facing the Paso del Norte region and we welcome you to join us in this journey.
