What You’ll Learn
Our program offers pre-pharmacy coursework within a Biology degree program that prepares students for the PharmCAS entrance exam and application to the University at Buffalo’s School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences in just 3 years. Upon an offer of acceptance by Buffalo, students transfer and spend years 4 through 7 on the Buffalo campus. A B.S. degree in Biology is awarded by SUNY Brockport in year 4 and a PharmD is awarded by Buffalo in year 7.
We provide an excellent academic foundation for advanced study, with University at Buffalo being one of our nation’s leading pharmacy schools. They are a world leader in drug development and provide ample opportunity for field training and residency programs.
You’ll receive all of this at the excellent value that SUNY provides.
Curriculum
A carefully tailored curriculum provides the necessary foundational coursework for pharmacy study, including math, biology, chemistry, physics and even English.
You’ll work closely with an advisement coordinator to design an academic plan that satisfies the your pharmacy school prerequisites and courses required for a B.S. degree in Biology.
