PharmD Research Certificate Program

PharmD Research Certificate Program

The Pharm.D. Research Certificate Program (PRCP) is designed for Pharm.D. students who excel in their Pharm.D. courses and have a strong desire and commitment to gain extensive experience and training in research. In the past, students and faculty found each other for research projects through informal methods. The PRCP aims to facilitate this interaction by pairing interested students with interested faculty in a more formal arrangement. Students accepted into the PRCP will receive intensive research training in a laboratory or clinical setting, and will complete research-related curricular requirements. Upon satisfactory completion of the program requirements, students will receive a KU Undergraduate Research Experience Program Certificate on their BSPS transcript and a Pharm.D. Research Certificate on their Pharm.D. transcript, and these certificates are expected to enhance their applications to post-graduate programs.
