  program_description: |
    The Philadelphia College of Pharmacy was the first college of pharmacy in North America, founded in 1821. Now a part of the School of Health Professions in Saint Joseph’s University, the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy offers its students a unique, cutting-edge, high-quality curriculum with an expanded network of industry partners, alumni networking and opportunities for interdisciplinary study. 
    
    The Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program mirrors the complex realities of modern practice, preparing students to thrive in today’s pharmacy environment. Ranked among the best pharmacy programs by U.S. News & World Report, our accredited Pharm.D. program offers a comprehensive professional curriculum combined with hands-on pharmacy practice experiences. 
    
    Under the guidance of expert practitioner-faculty and in state-of-the-art facilities, you will study immunizations, comprehensive medicine management, diabetes management, SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment) and more. Our coursework and approach provides the preparation necessary to pass the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination® (NAPLEX®) and obtain state certification to become a practicing pharmacist. In Saint Joseph’s Pharm.D. program, you will gain hands-on pharmacy experience early on and build upon it through graduation. You’ll benefit from more than 400 local, national and international clinical affiliation sites for training, including some of the most renowned hospitals, medical centers and pharmaceutical companies.
    
    You can add to your education through residencies, fellowships, minors, interdisciplinary coursework, additional degrees or certificates. Capstone courses allow you to explore drug therapy in the management & prevention of many disease states, work directly with data systems records that simulate those used in pharmacy practice, and develop drug therapy regimens using data from actual patients.
