91ÊÓƵ School of Pharmacy is very excited to welcome our newest faculty member to our team!

Across the street from the School of Pharmacy—just beyond the Max Light Rail tracks—sits the Pharmaceutical Sciences Research Lab. Though summer brings a quieter campus, the lab is anything but slow. Every year, our pharmaceutical sciences faculty and lab research staff provide enriching summer research experiences to undergraduate students through the ASPET SURF program, as well as to PharmD and Master’s students.

The School of Pharmacy successfully hosted a focused accreditation visit by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) on April 16 - 17, 2025.

As we do every year, the School of Pharmacy proudly hosted our Graduation and Awards Ceremony to celebrate the achievements of our graduating PharmD and MS students.

Both Drs. Michael Espiritu and Jessica Merlo were awarded promotions on July 1, 2025.

May is always a busy and exciting time at the School of Pharmacy, and this year was no exception. As the summer season began, our campus was buzzing with activity—from board exam prep, exit focus groups, and the research showcase to graduation festivities and everything in between.

This summer, our inaugural cohort of five-year pathway PharmD students successfully completed their first Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences (IPPEs).

On May 19, 2025 the School of Pharmacy welcomed their new Assistant Professor, Dr. D. Chad Johnson.
