The FlexPharmD program offers students greater flexibility, accessibility, and affordability. It includes a combination of online and in-person courses during the first three years of the program. Some courses are exclusively online for students to complete on their own time, while the remaining classes, lab activities, and exams are on campus. Fewer days on campus translates to reduced travel time, savings on transportation and living costs, and greater work-life balance.
