2 Credit Hours

This course is the second in a series of three introductory-level practice experience courses that are designed to develop professional attitudes, values and skills. Coursework consists of coordinated, student-centered, experiential activities based in an institutional pharmacy setting. Emphasis is placed on reflective, self-directed learning, to foster a service-oriented mentality and enable students to effectively deliver patient-centered care within the realm of institutional pharmacy practice. Prior to the beginning of the semester, students spend 40 hours per week for 2 weeks training under the guidance of a pharmacist mentor in a local institutional pharmacy. In addition, students participate in a weekly discussion on campus with the course instructor.
