The PharmD at Rutgers
The six-year Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) at Rutgers program begins with two years of pre-professional study and moves seamlessly into four years of professional training. Rutgers is home to one of the countryʼs few 0-6 PharmD programs, meaning students can enter directly from high school or transfer from a two- or four-year college into the first professional year.
Programs and Degrees
One of the oldest and best-regarded pharmacy schools in the country, the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy has a 125-year track record of preparing pharmacists, scientists, and healthcare professionals to make lasting contributions in our profession.
Critical Carer: Andrea Mosquera
EMSOP graduate ANDREA MOSQUERA ’24 has completed a clinical rotation at New Mexico’s Navajo Nation Reservation and presented research to the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists.
What’s not on her CV: As a student, during her critical care rotation, she met a young Dominican man with Type I diabetes. Mosquera, who is bilingual, learned he was out of insulin and hadn’t seen a doctor. “He’d have been back in 10 days,” recalls Mosquera, who drove him to appointments at Trenton’s nonprofit Henry J. Austin Health Center and with an endocrinologist.
“This kid fell through the cracks, but Andrea said, ‘Nope, not letting that happen” says Mosquera’s former advisor, Liza Barbarello Andrews ’98. “That’s exactly what we hope a pharmacist would do.”
