Why study Biological Sciences BS/PharmD at UB?

The Department of Biological Sciences is a center for innovative, interdisciplinary life sciences research and teaching. Our faculty research interests span all levels of biological organization, from molecules to ecosystems. This cross-disciplinary approach to life sciences, performed within a collegial, interactive atmosphere enables new discoveries that impact every major field of biological sciences. Our academic programs exploit the breadth and depth of our faculty’s research expertise, outstanding teaching and mentoring skills.

The doctor of pharmacy degree (PharmD) is a professional degree that enables one to work as a pharmacist, interacting with patients and other health care practitioners about medications.

The BS/PharmD program combines three years of undergraduate study in biological sciences and four years of graduate work in pharmacy. A combined BS/PharmD degree is awarded after seven years. Application to the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences is made following the second year at UB.

Learning Outcomes

During the BS portion of the program, students will develop a broad background in the biological sciences and achieve an understanding and appreciation of basic biological concepts and principles. They will become proficient in five broad areas of biology: evolutionary biology, cell biology, physiology, biochemistry and genetics.

Career Outlook

A degree in Biological Sciences is the gateway to a wide variety of careers. The curriculum is ideal preparation for entry into the health industry, including medicine, dentistry, optometry, medical technical fields, pharmacy and veterinary medicine. A Bachelor’s degree in Biological Sciences is also the first step towards a research career in fields as diverse as ecology, evolution, neuroscience, cell biology, genetics and molecular biology. Research careers are prominent at colleges and universities, as well as government agencies and pharmaceutical companies. The diversity of courses in Biological Sciences provides solid background for teaching at the secondary school, community college or university levels. The skills gained from laboratory courses are applicable to technical positions in laboratories in government, industry and academia. More intensive and valuable skills can also be gained through advanced research with individual faculty.

Program Outcomes

To achieve the mission of our PharmD program, students must develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that enable them to competently perform these functions. The following outcomes reflect the terminal skills that all UB PharmD graduates should be able to demonstrate upon program completion.

Patient/Pharmaceutical Care

Provide high quality, evidence-based, patient-centered care in cooperation with patients, prescribers and members of the interprofessional health care team Promote health and wellness and disease prevention Provide pharmaceutical care including, but not limited to, Medication Therapy Management (MTM), vaccinations and drug therapy monitoring in all practice areas (e.g., inpatient, ambulatory and community practice) Provide culturally competent pharmaceutical care and demonstrate cultural competence in all interactions Appropriately address patient-specific and population-specific needs

Medical and Science Foundations

Demonstrate mastery and application of core knowledge and skills in relation to the evolving biomedical, clinical, epidemiological and social-behavioral sciences. This includes competency in areas supporting high quality pharmacy practice (e.g., pharmaceutics, medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacology, pathophysiology, pharmacotherapeutics, and pharmaceutical care)
