About the course

Pharm.D. graduates ineligible to receive the B.S. in Pharmacy Foundations include applicants already holding a bachelor's degree prior to starting the Pharm.D. program and student pharmacists opting to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences degree. All students enrolled in the Duquesne University School of Pharmacy Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program automatically earn a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy Foundations (BSPF) in addition to a Pharm.D. simultaneously with no added cost, time or stress. Make the most of your time on campus by graduating with two degrees and the knowledge, skills and confidence to build a rewarding and exciting pharmacy career. Through the Direct Entry option at Duquesne's School of Pharmacy, first-year students automatically transition from the pre-professional phase (years one and two) to the professional phase (years three, four, five and six) of the six-year program if all criteria are met. Unlike other pharmacy schools, the guaranteed seat in the professional phase eliminates competition for spots among pre-professional students, allowing student pharmacists to focus on their own progression.
