Why Study Pre-Pharmacy?
Get on track to become a pharmacist, an important member of the healthcare field who focuses on educating patients on and managing medication.
Pharmacists work with patients and healthcare professionals in an informational and educational capacity for medicine, disease management, and public health related to medication distribution and use. Pre-Pharmacy, as a pre-professional program, is a statement of intent on the student’s part, not an academic major. Pre-Pharmacy students can either begin their preparation courses for pharmacy school at UMBC and then complete their bachelor studies at another institution or earn a separate bachelor’s degree at UMBC and then go to pharmacy school at another institution. Choosing to complete a UMBC bachelor’s degree can help you assemble a more competitive overall portfolio for admission to pharmacy school.
