Mentors

Develop professionalism, integrity, and a passion for improving the lives of patients with a team of faculty all committed to your success in pharmacy school and beyond.
Advanced Patient Care models
New Mexico has the most progressive pharmacy practice models in the entire country—models that allow pharmacists to improve lives in unsuspecting places and in unsuspecting ways. Our pharmacy community is constantly advocating to expand that practice, setting the example for other states.
Work alongside pharmacists with independent prescriptive authority as they serve the public health needs of New Mexicans through the administration of vaccinations, tobacco cessation prescription medications, hormonal contraception, travel medications, tuberculin skin tests, and HIV infection prevention medications.
Values of Service
Serving others is deeply rooted in our culture. Our students, faculty, and alumni participate year-round in a wide variety of community-based projects benefiting the underserved populations of New Mexico. Find your passion for giving back while offering health screenings, immunization clinics, poison prevention classes, atrial fibrillation screenings, fall risk assessments, diabetes family education, or classes on the dangers of prescription drug abuse as part of our college.
