Students will be exposed to many different aspects of the pharmacy profession that will allow them to learn the different roles pharmacists have in healthcare. There will be opportunities to hear from pharmacists in different fields of pharmacy such as community/retail, ambulatory care, health system/hospital, regulatory, managed care, and industry speak of their backgrounds and what they currently do in their positions. There will also be hands on opportunities to observe pharmacists in action and even practice some skills used by pharmacists! There are several desired outcomes from the course. First, it is expected that students understand the specific valuable roles pharmacist can play in patient care. Second, students come away with an appreciation of how their interests and career needs fit within the field of pharmacy. Third, students will gain basic skills and literacy for medication information and monitoring that they can use as a foundation to provide background to others less knowledgeable about the medication use process. Forth, students will learn to synthesize medical information into a presentation and have experience doing a poster presentation on an important medication-related topic.
