Curricular Requirements
NOTE: Prior to 2012, Pharm.D. students completed one year of pre-requisite coursework and after entry into the Pharm.D. program were required to successfully earn passing grades in five years of required basic science and pharmacy specific coursework. Beginning with the entering doctor of pharmacy class Fall 2012, the program requires four years of study after successful completion of a minimum two years of specified, pre-requisite coursework. For more information about the organization of coursework and curriculum requirements for the upcoming year, contact the UMKC School of Pharmacy Student Services Office.
The doctor of pharmacy degree program provides broad and general preparation in professional areas of practice with the intent that, on completion, graduates will be able to practice at a level sufficient to perform the established functions of a pharmacist. In addition, the Pharm.D. program prepares the student for advanced levels of professional practice. The major emphasis is on the clinical sciences and drug-related patient care.
This program is designed to provide advanced education and training in clinical pharmacy and drug information with particular emphasis on interprofessional team participation in the delivery of health care. To enable students to concentrate solely on this advanced professional coursework, those entering the doctor of pharmacy program are strongly encouraged to limit their work and/or intern hours during the academic year.
During the early portion of the curriculum, students complete their upper level basic science foundation courses, courses in pharmaceutical sciences, as well as introductory-level pharmacy courses and begin the professional skills development series.
As students progress, they engage in advanced lecture and laboratory coursework in the pharmaceutical and pharmacological sciences, introductory clinical sciences, and finish the professional development series in preparation for the Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences. In addition, students select professional electives designed to reinforce the pharmacy career track.
In the later stages of the curriculum Pharm.D. students pursue advanced coursework in the clinical sciences to include pharmacotherapeutics, evidence based medicine, pharmacy law, and pharmacy practice management. During this period, students also finish professional electives.
Each student will complete Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences (IPPE) during the curriculum. The IPPE’s allow students to take knowledge gained in the didactic curriculum and apply these skills in a variety of practice settings creating a foundation from which to build. The IPPE coursework will be interspersed throughout the didactic curriculum and must be completed before the Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPE) occurring in the final year of the program. IPPE opportunities may occur in simulated practice settings, community pharmacies, and health systems.
The final two semesters encompass the APPEs. Drug literature evaluation, instruction, and practice will be an integral part of the APPEs. Each student will be exposed to a core number of required and elective APPEs.
Doctor of Pharmacy APPEs are a series of required and elective experiences designed to complete the student’s education through supervised participation in pharmacy practice in a variety of settings. Candidates are expected to learn by assuming the pharmaceutical care responsibilities of a pharmacist under the direct supervision of a faculty preceptor. Experiences will include direct interaction with diverse patient populations in a variety of practice settings and involve collaboration with other health care professionals. The emphasis of the candidate’s activities will be the management of pharmacotherapy in patients at the assigned practice site. Candidates will also be engaged in ongoing drug utilization, patient and healthcare provider education programs and other pertinent patient care and clinical research activities involved in the provision of patient care. Clinical responsibilities are expected during all pharmacy practice experiences however, there are experiences in which the primary focus may be different. In these, the emphasis may be on the organization, technical and administrative aspects of providing pharmaceutical care.
IPPE and APPE prerequisites include satisfactory completion of all degree requirements prior to the respective term of the professional curriculum that these experiences take place. Candidates must also complete and submit all required documentation for the Office of Pharmacy Experiential Programs as they are notified. All immunizations and specified required documents must be on file with the Office of Experiential Programs before IPPEs and APPEs begin and must remain current through the last experiential rotation. Students enrolled in pharmacy practice experiences may not enroll in didactic courses outside of the required Pharm.D. curriculum without prior approval of the Director of Experiential Learning.
Because pharmacy is a profession undergoing rapid change, the curriculum is subject to continual review and modification. As society's needs for specific types of pharmaceutical service change, the curriculum will change as well. To assure the best pharmacy education for its students, the School of Pharmacy reserves the right of making judicious changes and improvements in course sequence, course content, or other program requirements at any time that must be completed and adhered to in order to meet graduation degree requirements.
