Combined Pharm.D. / Ph.D. Program College of Pharmacy Rationale The combination of advanced professional (Pharm.D.) and research (Ph.D.) education in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences prepares outstanding students for careers in academic pharmacy and pharmaceutical research. In the combined program, highly motivated students earn the Pharm.D. and Ph.D. degrees in less time than completion of the degrees separately. Some course work is credited toward both degrees, and the calendar year is fully utilized for completion of degree requirements; e.g., summer quarters are devoted to research. Both degrees can be completed after seven years of dedicated effort. Application A separate application must be submitted to the Pharm.D. Program, the Ph.D. Program, and the Combined Program; i.e., three applications. Applicants for the Combined Program must first be admitted both by the Ph.D. Program and by the Pharm.D. Program prior to seeking the approval for the combined program. Students who have not yet been admitted separately to both programs should contact the Admissions Office (Room 150 Parks Hall for Pharm.D.; Room 217C Parks Hall for Ph.D.) to obtain the relevant admission applications. Students currently enrolled in one of the programs must apply for admission to the other program; application should be made early to optimize the time saving advantage of the combined program.

The form must then be approved and signed by the Graduate Research Committee Chairperson and by the Pharm.D. Admissions Committee Chairperson, and submitted to the Graduate School. Pharm.D.
