For your first three years at the Mount, your course curriculum will look very similar to that of our other Biology majors. You’ll take your General Education and introductory courses in your major, followed by upper-level courses in the subject. In your junior year, you will also apply for admission to the doctoral program at Touro College of Pharmacy.
Following acceptance to the program, in your fourth year at the Mount, you’ll also begin taking classes at Touro. These classes will count as electives towards your undergraduate degree as well. At the end of your fourth year, you’ll graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Biology from the Mount and begin taking courses exclusively at Touro College towards a doctorate.
In order to be eligible for this program, you must maintain a 3.0+ overall GPA and a 2.75+ GPA in the sciences.
As with our traditional Biology majors, you’ll benefit from opportunities for applied research with professors, small class sizes that foster real world training, and giving back to the community both inside and outside the classroom.
With a bachelor's degree in Biology and a doctoral degree in Pharmacy, you'll be able to select a number of paths for your future as a pharmacist, including pharmaceutical practice, research, teaching, and more.
