Program Description
-------------------
Program Description:
The Masters Program is designed to be the “terminal” degree for the advanced practice clinician who brings science to practice. The maturation of clinical pharmacy and the widespread adoption of pharmaceutical care as the cornerstone of pharmacy practice are evidenced by changes in standards and regulations.

Collaborative drug therapy practice in Texas and in over 30 other states, allows pharmacists to assume primary care responsibilities for patients (e.g., disease management and the ordering of medications and laboratory tests).

Pharmacotherapy practitioners provide patient care responsibilities at the specialist level, apply science to practice, and contribute to the body of pharmacotherapeutic knowledge through scholarship and services innovation.
