PHARM.D.-MASTERS SHARED CREDIT PROGRAMS
P-3 students can choose graduate-level courses for electives as part of a Pharm.D. – Master’s degree shared credit program. This cost-effective option allows our Pharm.D. students to earn a Master’s degree a year or more sooner than would be the case if the degrees were earned back-to-back. The Pharm.D. – Master’s graduate will be more versatile and thus more job-competitive with this extra credential, with a built-in second career path as an option. The Pharm.D. degree is received on schedule, after the P-4 year. The Master’s degree is either received at the same time (4-year plan) or a year later (5-year plan). The 4-year plan is more cost-effective, but quite rigorous; the student is taking 21 credit hours for certain semesters, plus graduate-level electives at the same time as the APPE rotations. Only Pharm.D. students with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher can access the 4-year plan. The 5-year plan allows for a normal courseload, and is recommended.
