  program_description: |
    Founded in 1905, the USC School of Pharmacy has established itself as a pioneer in pharmacy education and practice. The School created the nation’s first PharmD program, as well as the first clinical clerkships. Serving as testament to its tradition of innovation and excellence, the School is recognized by U.S. News & World Report as the top private pharmacy school in the nation. The School offers a breadth of opportunities, including extensive dual degrees and areas of concentration, that allow students to customize their academic path and differentiate themselves in the job market. Located in Los Angeles, the School is situated within a hub of cultural diversity and medical advancement. The School occupies state-of-the-art facilities on USC’s Health Sciences Campus, surrounded by numerous healthcare facilities. The School boasts a robust, engaged alumni network, as over half of pharmacists in Southern California are USC graduates. Through this network, students have access to over 300 sites for clinical and experiential programs, and also have the opportunity to create connections that will last them throughout their careers.
