Program Description:
Graduate education in pharmacology embodies the principles and mechanisms of drug action in biological systems. Through coursework, seminars, and conferences, students in the pharmacology MS program gain exposure to both classical and recent approaches that have led to the development of current theories of drug action and therapeutic application. Pharmacology should not be confused with pharmacy programs or training, which lead to professional licensure as a pharmacist and involve  medication management.
