  program_description: |
    The role of the pharmacist is changing and the Western New England University Doctor of Pharmacy program prepares you to be a part of that future. As the practice of pharmacy transitions, WNE is meeting the moment through a comprehensive and adaptable online curriculum.
    
    The College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences is offering a full-time, online distance pathway to the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree. Offered as a high-quality online alternative to our campus-based Doctor of Pharmacy program, the PharmD distance pathway will allow you to pursue a career in pharmacy wherever you are and with more flexibility to meet life’s demands. As an ideal program for the self-motivated student, you’ll work through the same curriculum as our campus-based program, and there is no added time to degree completion. 
    
    The Western New England University Doctor of Pharmacy program prepares entry-level practitioners to provide pharmacy care to an increasingly diverse patient population in a variety of practice environments. The WNE Doctor of Pharmacy Distance program is a four year, 146 credit curriculum that includes both online classroom instruction and hands-on, in person (experiential) learning. With an maximum incoming class size of 75, our low student-faculty ratio ensures students receive individualized attention. In the classroom, students engage in discussion and learn through integration and application of pharmaceutical, clinical and administrative sciences. Introductory pharmacy practice experiences (IPPE) and advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPE) provide a framework for learners to integrate classroom skills in a supervised environment early in the program and practice the skills in a more independent manner during the final year as they evolve into independent practitioners.
