PHRM 711 - The Capstone Project

This is an optional course for all student pharmacist graduates of the PharmD program at Chapman University School of Pharmacy. This is a longitudinal course that requires review, synthesis and application of what has been learned in the Chapman School of Pharmacy curriculum through P1 to P3. Student pharmacists will be guided to select a focused area of interest in pharmacy-related practice or research to advance knowledge and skills through elective courses and experiential experiences. Student pharmacists will prepare the research- or practice-related project for platform and/or poster presentation at the conclusion of trimester 8 as another component of the experiential education. The student pharmacist will work under the guidance of the project advisor with the support of the faculty advisors. Depending on the project selected by the student pharmacists, the project advisor may be a Chapman School of Pharmacy faculty, Chapman faculty, expert from an outside affiliated organization, or an experiential educator. The faculty and peers at Chapman University are the target audience. P/NP. May be repeated for credit. (Offered every year.) ½-1 credit
