  program_description: |
    The role of the pharmacist is changing and the Western New England University Doctor of Pharmacy program prepares you to be a part of that future. As the practice of pharmacy transitions, WNE is meeting the moment through a comprehensive and adaptable online curriculum. The WNE Doctor of Pharmacy DLPx is a 146-credit curriculum that includes both online classroom instruction and hands-on, in-person (experiential) learning. Our low student-faculty ratio ensures students receive individualized attention. In both the digital and in-person classroom, students engage in discussion and learn through integration and application of pharmaceutical, clinical, and administrative sciences. Introductory pharmacy practice experiences (IPPE) and advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPE) provide a framework for learners to integrate classroom skills in a supervised environment early in the program and practice the skills in a supervised environment early in the program and practice the skills in a more independent manner during the final year as they evolve into independent practitioners.
    The online curriculum of the Extended Distance Learning Pathway closely mirrors that of the campus-based program, except for the Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences (IPPE), which will take place over the summers between professional years 1 and 2 (PY1-PY2) and professional years 2 and 3 (PY2-PY3). Students can expect the same quality, content, and rigor regardless of pathway.
    
    Additionally, campus-based weeks will be required during the program. A one-week immersive session for orientation will occur at the beginning of the program, and at the end of most semesters, there will be 1-2 weeks of hands-on learning and assessment immersive sessions.
