Pharmacy is a seven-year program with three years of prepharmacy courses followed by four years of professional studies. By offering the three years of pharmacy, Cedarville University allows you to complete its unique Bible minor and entire general education curriculum without having an overloaded class schedule. The Bible minor and liberal arts core are essential to what makes a Cedarville education distinctive. This also affords you the freedom to participate in other activities such as sports, music, and pharmacy-geared missions trips - important aspects of your Cedarville experience!
The three years of prepharmacy courses are followed by four years of professional-level education. The final year of the pharmacy program involves advanced clinical rotations in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings around the region and nation. You will also enjoy a rich co-curricular environment that will equip you to be a person of influence in your profession and community. Upon graduation, you will earn a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.).
