Mylan School of Pharmacy Professional Degree Programs The School of Pharmacy has entered its fourth quarter-century of providing quality pharmacy education. The first Pharmacy class matriculated in September 1925 under the leadership of the founding dean Dr. Hugh C. Muldoon. In May 2000, the Mylan School of Pharmacy graduated the first entry-level Doctor of Pharmacy class. The School of Pharmacy continues to educate pharmacists who are making important contributions as health care practitioners. The Mylan School of Pharmacy offers a six year on-campus Doctor of Pharmacy program of study and a post-baccalaureate weekend pathway leading to the Doctor of Pharmacy degree. The online Non-Traditional Doctor of Pharmacy program for practicing pharmacists is being phased out and is scheduled to end in May 2009. The full-time on-campus Pharm.D. is configured in a two-year preprofessional and four-year professional curricular format. The Faculty of the School has developed a competencybased, outcomes-oriented curriculum that prepares future generalist pharmacy practitioners to provide quality pharmaceutical care to patients. The new professional curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, ethical and spiritual values, and an understanding of personal, social, and professional responsibilities. Integrated studies in the biological, chemical, pharmaceutical, administrative, behavioral, and clinical sciences are taught, using traditional and innovative instructional techniques. It includes a multi-year, introductory-to-advanced level experiential education component. Opportunities are provided for additional preparation in community pharmacy practice, institutional practice, geriatrics, management, industrial pharmacy, and for graduate study. Pharmacists are one of the most visible, accessible, and trusted health care professionals. The demand for pharmacy professionals has increased substantially in recent years due to the rapid growth of health care services, the pharmaceutical industry, and the geriatric population in the United States. With the increase in the number of prescription medications and the use of OTC and other health care products, the pharmacistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role in drug therapy decision-making and patient counseling is critical. Pharmacists, as an essential component of the current health care environment, collaborate with other health care practitioners to ensure optimal medication therapy management.

Mylan School of Pharmacy Pharmacy is characterized by a diversity of career options and almost limitless opportunities for licensed practitioners. In the United States, the vast majority of pharmacists practice in community and health system environments. Pharmacists work in home health, long-term and managed care facilities; in nuclear pharmacy and drug information / poison control centers; in the military and public health services; with government agencies, professional pharmacy associations, and health insurance companies; with mail order and Internet pharmacy services. Pharmacy practitioners are employed in the pharmaceutical industry in pharmacy sales and marketing, as medical liaisons, and in manufacturing, research and development. With advanced degrees and other professional degrees, pharmacists may obtain research and teaching positions in academia and exciting careers in other professional fields. Duquesne Pharmacy graduates are pursuing rewarding careers in all of the aforementioned areas. Pharmacy offers a flexible work environment and a variety of geographical locations from large urban regions to small rural communities. Success as a pharmacy practitioner is dependent on a combination of education and personal abilities and talents, work ethic, and imagination.

The City Surrounded by the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio rivers, the downtown “Golden Triangle” of the city of Pittsburgh is a corporate headquarters and the hub of numerous cultural activities. This “most livable city in the United States” supports an internationally renowned symphony orchestra and ballet, opera and numerous dramatic companies. Technology and education flourish in this city of highly esteemed colleges, universities, and trade and technical schools. Pittsburgh supports professional teams in football (Steelers), baseball (Pirates) and hockey (Penguins). Perhaps the most engaging quality of this metropolitan area is the “hometown” flavor of the many individual neighborhoods that comprise the “City of Pittsburgh.”

The University Duquesne University first opened its doors as the Pittsburgh Catholic College of the Holy Ghost in October 1878 with an enrollment of 40 students and a faculty of seven. From a humble original location on Wylie Avenue in the City’s Uptown section to its present beautifully self-contained campus, Duquesne provides a hilltop vista overlooking one of the nation’s most attractive cities. Today Duquesne University is a progressive educational facility which has more than tripled from its early 12.5 acres to its present, self-enclosed 48-acre campus overlooking the city of Pittsburgh. Tree-lined brick walkways lead to academic buildings, living-learning centers, research and recreational facilities. Duquesne’s academics are recognized both nationally and internationally. Almost every state in the Union and more than 75 countries are represented in the Duquesne family, and our mission of service drives our outreach across the country and the globe. Duquesne’s recent growth has been tremendous with students in ten schools of study, including the College and Graduate School of Liberal Arts (1878); and the Schools of Law (1911); Business Administration (1913); Pharmacy (1925); Music (1926); Education (1929); Nursing (1937); Health Sciences (1990); School of Natural and Environmental Sciences (1994) and the School of Leadership and Professional Advancement (2001). Duquesne’s ten schools offer degree programs on the baccalaureate, professional, master’s and doctoral levels.
