Program Overview Requirements EPA and Educational Outcomes Rotation Types

Program Overview

While on rotations, our fourth year (P4) students are not in a traditional classroom setting, therefore our preceptors serve as their primary educators. This allows preceptors to provide direct student feedback and tailor specific rotation activities and projects for the benefit of the students and the site.

During APPEs, students provide advanced clinical pharmacy services under the supervision of their pharmacy preceptor. Goals of these experiences are development of the integration of fundamental knowledge with clinical applications.  

Students will demonstrate achievement of specific Educational Outcomes and perform selected Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA) based on the type of rotation. See the EPA and Educational Outcome tab for more information.
