Bachelor of Arts [B.A]/Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Biology 3 + 1] From Wingate University

Students graduate with a BS/BA in and course preparation needed for graduate pharmacy study, including credits that are transferable toward their doctorate.

Students interested in this accelerated program should declare a biology major early. Once they declare this major, they are assigned a faculty adviser to guide them through the program.

All of the pre-pharmacy program?s requirements are completed during the first two years as outlined in the?four-year academic plan?for the pre-pharmacy program. Students take core curriculum and biology classes during the first three years. The fourth year is devoted to pharmacy electives. The?pre-pharmacy degree checklist?offers a guide to the degree requirements. This means you?ll have an advantage when you apply to graduate school.

During the third year of the program, students engage in laboratory work, gaining practical firsthand experience that applies classroom study to hands-on learning.

With a dual degree and biology background, our students are prepared for careers not traditionally associated with a pharmacy degree. Our graduates have been hired by:

• The Centers for Disease Control
• Drug Enforcement Administration
• Food and Drug Administration
• Healthcare product manufacturers
• Pharmaceutical companies
• Research foundations
