Nova Southeastern University College of Pharmacy, Educational institution in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Nova Southeastern University College of Pharmacy is a pharmacy school located in Davie and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, training students for careers in pharmaceutical science and practice. The institution operates a second campus in Puerto Rico and offers multiple degree paths from entry-level to doctoral and research programs.
The school was founded in 1987 and later received a major gift from Dr. Barry Silverman and his wife Judy, which led to the institution's current name. This donation helped the pharmacy program expand its reach and strengthen its educational mission.
The college ranks first nationwide for Hispanic and fourteenth for African-American students obtaining the Pharm.D. degree, reflecting its commitment to diversity in education.
Prospective students and visitors can tour either the Davie location or the Puerto Rico campus to learn more about the programs offered. It is helpful to contact the school ahead of time to understand which facilities are accessible for campus visits.
The school operates the only combination of a full-service retail pharmacy and an institutional hospital pharmacy in the country used for student training. This allows students to practice in realistic settings across both pharmacy practice areas.
