Pharmaceutical Health Policy & Management Pathway

Values

The Pharmaceutical Health Policy & Management Pathway prepares students to be the future decision makers on health policies and processes for those companies, institutions, and state and federal government agencies that are working to benefit those in need of care and health-related services.

In doing this, we achieve our mission in the context of the following values:

• The student/faculty relationship is the stepping stone to knowledge and effective practice.
• The evidence base for policy change is created by the rigorous application of sound scientific methods.
• A multi-disciplinary approach to healthcare issues is essential to creating integrated and innovative solutions.
• Feedback from students is a vital means to continuous quality improvement.
• Scholarship in the form of peer-reviewed publications is a key measure of excellence in the advancement of health policy.
• Commitment to individual achievement is imperative for expanding personal knowledge in the area of health policy.
• Independent study by students with effective faculty support is a valued educational experience for the student, the faculty and the student's future employer.
• Team approaches to problem solving, curriculum improvement, and research are successful when each team member pulls a full measure of responsibility.
