신설 박사과정: PharmD, Fairleigh Dickinson University

Fairleigh Dickinson University has announced that it has received approval from the New Jersey Presidents’ Council of the Commission on Higher Education to enroll students in New Jersey’s first pharmacy school affiliated with an independent university.

The school, to be housed within the Maxwell Becton College of Arts and Sciences at the College at Florham in Madison, NJ, will offer a doctor of pharmacy degree (PharmD) with four concentrations: pharmaceutical science, pharmacy administration, pharmacy education and pharmacy business. It will enroll its inaugural class in fall 2012, and will admit about 80 well-qualified students per year who have completed a rigorous prerequisite course load that will enable them to choose a concentrated area of study.

Students will be able to elect one of four programs resulting in a PharmD degree combined with a master’s degree. The master’s options are:
• Master of science degree in pharmaceutical chemistry (pharmaceutical science track),
• Master of arts in education (pharmacy education track),
• Master of public administration (pharmacy administration track),
• Master of business administration (pharmacy business track).

FDU is investing $12 million to renovate and expand its science facilities at the College at Florham. The new pharmacy school has applied for accreditation from the American Council for Pharmacy Education.
