    The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy in cooperation with UTEP offers a five-year curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy. This program provides the community with pharmacists who are trained to deliver a wide range of pharmaceutical services.

    The Cooperative Pharmacy Program, located on the UTEP campus, is designed to facilitate access to the College of Pharmacy at Austin by providing opportunities to fulfill graduation requirements in El Paso. At present, the first two years of "pre-pharmacy" curriculum (e.g., organic chemistry, calculus, physics) is offered at UTEP. Students then apply for admission to UT-Austin and take approximately three years of classes in Austin before returning to El Paso to complete the hands-on component of their pharmacy education.

    A six-year curriculum that results in a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree is also available through the Cooperative Pharmacy Program. Students should be aware that nationally and in Texas consideration is being given to the discontinuation of the bachelor's degree for pharmacy. If the bachelor's degree is phased out, students interested in becoming pharmacists will enter the Doctor of Pharmacy degree program.

    Further information about the program can be obtained from the Program Director who is located at 1100 N. Stanton, Room 291; El Paso, TX 69902 (915/747-8519) or from the University of Texas at Austin, College of Pharmacy (512/475-9756).
