DETAILED INFORMATION

At Washington State University we are knowledgeable trailblazers. We believe in creating a better future, driving innovation and challenging limits to advance human health. We emphasize preeminent faculty, life-changing research and engaged learning.
The College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences takes pride in the outstanding education and experience our Doctor of Pharmacy students receive. Below are just a few reasons why you should consider being a Cougar pharmacist.
Our curriculum focuses on student success. We have implemented an active learning classroom, which makes your time in class more efficient and increases your time to interact with your professors. We use proven evidence-based education approaches to create our teaching and testing style to ensure better knowledge retention and career success.
Our program is at the forefront of pharmacy education that is defining the pharmacist as part of the health care team. Students are trained in the traditional practices of dispensing and compounding medications and also learn how to give flu shots, take blood pressure, test blood glucose, assess a patient’s overall health, and more.
Our introductory practice experiences begin in your first year and expand from there. Hands-on learning includes patient simulation, internships, rotations, community outreach, and volunteer opportunities that allow you to practice confidently immediately after graduation.
Our tuition is lower than private schools and the college alone awards roughly $300,000 in scholarships per year to student pharmacists. Plus, both Spokane and Yakima have affordable housing, short commutes, and a variety of outdoor and cultural activities.
We know that identifying which pharmacy program is right for you can be an overwhelming process. Our office is here to help you as you navigate this process with pre-pharmacy advising, application tips, and any questions you have throughout the application process.
Please contact our office at pharmacy.admissions@wsu.edu or (509)368-6605 if you have questions.
