The College of Pharmacy at Oregon State
University is a member of the American
Association of Colleges of Pharmacy and is
fully accredited by the American Council
on Pharmaceutical Education. Its objective is to contribute to the improvement of
public health and welfare through
dissemination, expansion, and application
of knowledge. In so doing, the college
provides an instructional program assuring
academic and technical proficiency in the
basic sciences and their pharmaceutical
application.
A petition from the pharmacists of
Oregon led to the establishment of the
Department of Pharmacy at Oregon State
College in 1898. The department grew
steadily and in 1917 became the School of
Pharmacy. The Pharmacy Building, which
was designed and constructed specifically
for pharmaceutical education, was built in
1925 and extensively remodeled and
expanded in 1966.
Holders of the Bachelor of Science in
Pharmacy degree can qualify for a wide
variety of professional positions. Most
graduates engage in the community
practice of pharmacy; some eventually
become owners or part-owners of pharmacies. Opportunities exist for pharmacists in hospital, nursing home, and clinic
pharmacies; for medical representatives
with pharmaceutical manufacturers; for
production, control, and research pharmacists in the manufacture of medicinal and
pharmaceutical products; for personnel in
wholesale drug distribution; for food and
drug control chemists or inspectors with
local, state, and federal health agencies;
for pharmacists in the Public Health
Service, the Veterans Administration, the
armed forces, and other government
agencies; and in pharmaceutical journalism.
Graduates of this college are privileged
to become licensed either by examination
or reciprocity in all states except California,
Florida, and Hawaii, which permit
licensure by examination only.

Pharmacy Information
A young man or woman beginning a
career in pharmacy needs a combination
of natural attributes, education, training,
and experience. A pharmacist has a
position of considerable responsibility in
the health professions. Carelessness can
endanger lives; thus, a student going into
pharmacy must be neat, orderly, accurate,
and careful with details.
Formal pharmacy education is divided
into two parts-two years of prepharmacy
and three years of professional pharmacy.
After successful completion of this fiveyear course of study, the graduate receives
the B.S. degree and becomes eligible to
complete the internship requirements
described below and to take the examination given by the state Board of Pharmacy.
After successful completion of these
requirements, the graduate is granted a
license to practice pharmacy.
The Prepharmacy Program
The courses required in the freshman and
sophomore years (see curriculum on page
242) may be taken at Oregon State
University or any other accredited college
or university. The prepharmacy program
must be completed for the student to be
considered for admission to the professional program.
Required courses must be taken for a
letter grade; however, an exception may
be made if a course is only offered pass/no
pass. The student should make a specific
request for waiver of grade requirement
directly to the pharmacy office prior to
taking the course.
If a high school graduate fulfills the
requirements for admission to OSU (see
page 10), the graduate may be admitted to
the prepharmacy program in the College
of Pharmacy as a freshman. He or she does
not need to have taken any specific high
school courses, but mathematics, chemistry,
physics, and biology, as well as typing and
speech communication are recommended.
Students from community colleges,
other colleges and universities, or other
schools at OSU may transfer into the
prepharmacy program at the beginning of
any term during their freshman or
sophomore year. If they plan to apply for
the professional pharmacy program, it is
recommended that they transfer into the
College of Pharmacy as early as possible,
but they may take as many as two
complete years elsewhere.

a
The Professional Pharmacy
Program
The three-year professional pharmacy
program (see curriculum on page 242)'
provides a broad scientific base with room
for a wide variety of elective courses.
Students should take additional courses in
business and econonmics, in various fields
of pharmacy, or they may take advanced
work in mathematics and chemistry,
especially if they are interested in industrial or research pharmacy.
Through judicious selection of elective
courses, a student may concentrate in such
areas as general, clinical, geriatric,
administrative, nuclear or industrial
pharmacy; or prepare for graduate study.
Enrollment in the three-year professional program is limited. A student who
has completed the prepharmacy requirements must apply for admission to the
professional pharmacy program. Students
who have completed the prepharmacy
program at other institutions must apply
to both the OSU Office of Adminisions and
to the College of Pharmacy. Acceptance
by both offices is required for admission to
the professional program. Application
forms and information about admission
policies are available from the College of
Pharmacy.
Once admitted to the junior year in
pharmacy, students should register for a
regular sequence of work as outlined on
page 242. The sequence of both professional and nonprofessional required courses
'Because pharmacy is a rapidly changing discipline, it
is likely that curricular modifications will occur from
time to time. Thus, the College of Pharmacy r:serves
the right to alter its curriculum in accordance with
professional and institutional standards during the
tenure of any given student.
must be maintained. Students may register
for only those courses for which they have
completed the stated prerequisite courses.
Students are advised that part of their
course work may require living away from
the Corvallis campus for one to two
academic quarters (10-20 weeks) in their
third professional year.
Each student reviews his or her career
objectives with an assigned faculty adviser
and determines a program of study. The
adviser must approve the student's proposed schedule before preregistration each
term.
Academic Requirements
Pharmacy students must meet the current
academic requirements of the University.
In addition to the University's requirements,
the faculty of the college has adopted the
rules listed below to assure that all
pharmacy students graduating from the
OSU College of Pharmacy have the best
possible educational backgrounds.
a. Students must complete all required
core courses (pharmacy designators) with
a grade-point average of 2.00 or higher to
be eligible for graduation.
Academics
239
b. Any student achieving a grade-point
average below 2.00 in the required core
courses of the professional pharmacy
program, either term or cumulative, will
be placed or continued on probation
(unless subject to suspension) in the
College of Pharmacy. Any student on
probation may be removed from probation by earning a 2.00, both term and
cumulative, in the required core courses of
the professional pharmacy program.
c. Any student who is on probation for
two consecutive terms or is deficient 12 or
more grade points in the required core
courses will be suspenced from the College
of Pharmacy.
d. A student may be placed on deferred
suspension by action of the College of
Pharmacy Academic Requirements Committee. This action will be taken when the
committee has determined that extenuating circumstances have had a major role in
placing the student in the position of
potentially being suspended from the
College of Pharmacy. The conditions for
removal from deferred suspension will be
determined for each student by the College
Academic Requirements Committee.
e. A course in which a D or F was earned
may be repeated once. A pharmacy course
in which a B or C grade was earned may
not be repeated for the purpose of raising
the pharmacy grade-point average.
f. E and I grades in required pharmacy
courses must be removed within three
weeks after the next term begins.
g. A student who has any academic
deficiency will not be allowed to serve on
any College of Pharmacy committee.
In establishing these rules, the faculty
recognizes that there may be extenuating
circumstances for inadequate academic
performance and reaffirms the policy that
any student may petition the College of
Pharmacy Academic Requirements Committee for deviation from the school's
academic requirements.
Readmission Policy
Any student leaving the College of
Pharmacy via withdrawal or suspension
(see Academic Requirements) must comply with the following before he or she is
readmitted.
Suspension
Students suspended for failure to meet
academic requirements will not be allowed to enroll in any pharmacy courses
for at least one academic quarter. During
240
Oregon State University
this period of time, they must transfer
schools. If they wish to be reinstated in the
College of Pharmacy, they must develop,
have approved, and complete a program
of study intended to improve the academic
background in the perceived area of
difficulty.
The program is to be approved by the
College of Pharmacy Admissions Committee during the first quarter after suspension but prior to enrolling in such courses.
Once it is satisfactorily completed, the
student will be eligible for reinstatement
by submitting an application for readmission to the College of Pharmacy Admissions Committee. It must be submitted
prior to the beginning of the term for
which the student wishes to be reinstated,
but after final grades are available.
Program on Gerontology
Administered through the College of
Home Economics, the Program on Gerontology involves students and faculty from
seven colleges and fourteen departments
throughout the University, including the
College of Pharmacy. Through course
work in these departments, the program
offers a multidisciplinary perspecitive on
aging and prepares students for careers in
programs on aging, or for work with the
elderly as a specialty within another
professional area. Undergraduate students
may earn a certificate in gerontology,
graduate students an integrated minor.
For further information, contact the
director in the Department of Human
Development and Family Studies, College
of Home Economics.
Withdrawal
The student must complete an "Application
for Readmission to the College of
Pharmacy" and submit this to the College
of Pharmacy Admissions Committee at
least two weeks prior to the term for which
the student wishes to re-enroll. Transcripts
of all classwork attempted after withdrawal must accompany the application.
Students must reapply and be readmitted
before they will be allowed to re-enroll in
College of Pharmacy classes.
Field Trips
Students may make several field trips.
They may tour several Midwest or
California pharmaceutical plants with
transportation their only expense;as guests
of the pharmaceutical firms, they are
provided with lodging and meals. Visiting
lecturers and trips to hospitals, wholesale
houses, and manufacturers in Oregon help
acquaint students with the scope of
pharmacy as a field.
WICHE Program
Oregon State University's College of
Pharmacy accepts students supported
through the Western Interstate Commis-
sion for Higher Education (WICHE)
Professional Student Exchange Program.
This interstate program provides the
opportunity for students from the 13
cooperating states to obtain professional
training not available in their home states.
Further information regarding the
WICHE program may be obtained by
writing to the state certifying officer or to
the WICHE Professional Student Exchange Program, P.O. Drawer P, Boulder,
Colorado 80302.
University Honors Program
The Honors Program in this college is
coordinated with the programs in other
colleges and administered by the director
of the University Honors Program (see
page 43). Information concerning eligibility and application forms may be obtained
from the director.
Licensure
Public health laws require that the
pharmacist be licensed before being
permitted to compound and dispense
drugs and medicines on the prescriptions
of licensed medical practitioners. To
become licensed in Oregon, a person must
be at least 18 years of age, of good moral
character, a graduate of an accredited
school or college of pharmacy recognized
by the Board of Pharmacy; complete the
internship requirements; and pass the
Board of Pharmacy examination.
Internship in the various areas of
pharmacy under the supervision of a
registered pharmacist is required for a
total of 1500 credits. No internship may
count until after the student has finished
the junior year in pharmacy at OSU. All of
the internship may be completed after
graduation, but at least 400 credits must
be taken after graduation. At the option of
the state Board of Pharmacy, the externship in the third professional year may be
counted for up to 500 credits of internship
credit.
Baccalaureate Degree Programs
The Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and the
Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degrees are
offered in the five-year undergraduate
program in pharmacy. A degree candidate
must satisfy University requirements (see
page 14) and complete a total of at least
240 term credits of university-level courses
including the approved prepharmacy and
professional pharmacy curricula. To
graduate, a student must also have a
grade-point average of 2.00 (C) or higher
in all professional pharmacy course work.
Graduate Study
Persons with education beyond the B.S.
degree are needed to fill positions in
industrial research and development,
college teaching, government service,
hospital pharmacy, and pharmaceutical
distribution. The College of Pharmacy
offers Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor
of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees in pharmacy,
with dissertation fields in pharmaceutical
chemistry, pharmaceutical science, pharmaceutics, biopharmaceutics, pharmacognosy, pharmacology and toxicology,
and pharmacy administration. An M.S.
with emphasis in institutional pharmacy is
also offered. All advanced degrees are
granted through the Graduate School. The
College of Pharmacy can provide additional information, including brochures,
about graduate study in pharmacy.
Candidates for admission to graduate
study must hold a bachelor's degree. (For
the field of institutional pharmacy, the
bachelor's degree must be in pharmacy
and the student must be eligible for
licensure as a pharmacist.) Acceptance is
determined by the Graduate Studies
Committee of the College of Pharmacy.
Candidates must have attained a creditable scholastic average in undergraduate
work and have determined a definite
objective to be attained through advanced
study. Advanced degree programs are
developed with faculty advisement to meet
the interests and objectives of the individual candidate.
