The University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy offers its Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program on the Twin Cities and Duluth campuses.   Each campus offers unique advantages, therefore we encourage you to research them and choose the campus that best fits your preferred learning environment. 

Both the Twin Cities and Duluth are vibrant cities about 150 miles apart.  Pharm.D. students at both campuses receive the same world-class education in pharmacy.  The curriculum is identical in both locations and some classes are transmitted through ITV (interactive television) from each campus to the other.  The University of Minnesota utilizes the latest technology to provide students with the highest quality education.  ITV is used to share the expertise of faculty and provide collaboration between students on both campuses. 

Unique opportunities for interprofessional education, involvement in research and learning by doing are offered on each campus.  In the fourth year of the Pharm.D. program students obtain advanced pharmacy practice experiences(APPEs) in pharmacy throughout Minnesota.  Students on both campuses have equal access to APPEs throughout the state.
