University of Florida Offers Graduate Credits
Beginning in January 2009, the University of Florida College of Pharmacy will offer Pharmacy Leadership Academy participants the opportunity to earn graduate credit hours to be applied toward a Master of Science in Pharmacy Institutional Leadership. Participants may also enroll as non-degree candidates.

Academy participants who register with the College and who successfully complete the Academy modules will receive from the College 3 graduate credits for 4 to 5 Academy completed modules, up to a total of 6 credits for all nine completed Academy modules. Academy participants who have received the 6 credits may then complete the Master of Science in Institutional Pharmacy Leadership online degree program by earning an additional 24 credits.

For additional information about the Master of Science in Institutional Pharmacy Leadership program, visit the University of Florida's Web site. Questions about the College's graduate online programs should be directed to Program Director David Brushwood at brushwood@cop.ufl.edu.
