Pharmacy, Volume 10, Issue 5

October 2022 - 37 articles

Cover Story: Globalization of pharmacist’s direct patient care has created the need for advanced training of pharmacists in order to address unmet healthcare needs. In this issue, Reynolds et al. share their experiences of establishing a program specifically tailored to the international pharmacist seeking a US-based PharmD in order to advance practice in their home country. While prior papers have focused on predictors of curricular success, this paper provides a comprehensive analysis of predictors for both didactic and experiential success in an international cohort of practicing pharmacists. In addition to the authors providing this analysis, they also provide practical curricular and admissions-related considerations for pharmacy programs pursuing an international PharmD student base.
