    Excellence is in our DNA! 100% of alum would choose RFU again compared to 82% nat’l avg (AACP, 2023). True to our namesake, Dr. Rosalind Franklin, the College of Pharmacy (COP) at RFU is a pioneer in healthcare education with the mission to improve wellness through innovative, interprofessional (IP) education of health and biomedical professionals and the discovery and implementation of knowledge. We seek a diverse and inclusive community committed to excellence and service.
    
    Located in North Chicago, IL adjacent to the Lovell Federal Health Care Center, COP Student Pharmacists are prepared for many practice areas, residency, fellowship. Alumni preceptors work in community and health-system clinical practice, pharma, and academia at top sites.
    
    Small class sizes promote individualized mentorship and hands-on instruction. The P1 year immerses Student Pharmacists into healthcare through immunizing the community, IP engagement, simulation experiences, and active learning classrooms. Distinction pathways (IP excellence, research, industry) augment the educational journey, allowing students to pursue and be recognized for their passions. Emerging technologies, pharmacogenomics, and use of AI are woven into the didactic curriculum.
    
    An IP education makes RFU special. Students take classes with other healthcare students and can provide team-based care to underserved patients at the nationally recognized Interprofessional Community Clinic.
    
    The RFU COP fits for students seeking to:
    
    • Learn from experienced faculty, clinical pharmacists
    • Foster love and advocacy for pharmacy
    • Learn in small classes
    • Promote diversity, equity, inclusion
    • Pursue concurrent degrees and certificates
    • Conduct research in a variety of fields
    • Use advanced simulation technology
    • Learn with other health professionals
    • Serve disadvantaged communities
    • Establish an identity as a future pharmacist
