Rising Above

Rising Above

Without a doubt, the 2019–20 academic and fiscal years came to a close in a unique and unprecedented fashion.

While the world grew accustomed to separation and isolation, at the UIC College of Pharmacy, staying apart meant staying together.

GLEN T. SCHUMOCK Professor and Dean

As always, we remain united with the common goal of strengthening our community in innovative ways while continuing to develop and maintain our connection to the global healthcare arena and its ever-changing needs. As physical facilities closed, our online classrooms and offices opened to a brave new world of possibility. And, true to our 161-year-long history, we adapted, undeterred by adversity and rising above challenge, to welcome to the world the next generation of more than 200 pharmacists, pharmaceutical scientists, and industry leaders.
