About This Program

The University offers the Pharm.D. as the sole entry-level pharmacy practice degree. As described in the mission, this program emphasizes an integrated and problem-based approach to disease management as the core of the didactic, laboratory, and experiential program of study. The capstone of the Pharm.D. program is a series of seven six-week rotations known as the advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPE). Each six-week APPE course requires 240 hours of on-site, practitioner-faculty-supervised hours of internship experience. The college expects but cannot guarantee that experiential regions will include Austin/Temple/Waco, Dallas/Fort Worth (UT Southwestern Medical Center and other area health care facilities), Galveston/Houston (UTMB Health at Galveston, The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, and other area health care facilities), the Rio Grande Valley (health care facilities primarily in Harlingen and McAllen), and San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio and other area health care facilities). Students assigned to San Antonio spend two years in this region, while students assigned to other regions spend only the final year in the APPE region.
