This degree is designed to prepare students for both graduate programs in Pharmacy (PharmD)  and related areas (Master’s and Ph.D. degrees in Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmacology, etc.) in addition to entry-level pharmaceutical research, sales, and industry positions.  The major builds on a foundation in disciplines that are the basis to understanding the pharmaceutical sciences (chemistry, biology, math, physics, economics) while providing specialized instruction in pharmaceutical-related Biology and Chemistry courses at the upper-division level.
