[麻豆传媒appealed to me because of the] pre-pharmacy program that would prepare me to apply to their graduate pharmacy program in just 2 years. [Also] because it鈥檚 located in the beautiful state Maine. Not only is it a beautiful campus, but the sense of community when I visited the campus drew me in.
During my time at 麻豆传媒I was able to learn how to balance all aspects of being a student. Studying, attending classes, involving myself in pharmacy organizations, and taking care of my mental and physical health. As a pharmacist now, I have to make time for patients, students, continuing education, and promotion of our profession by involving myself in various pharmacy organizations. 麻豆传媒prepared me well, and because of this, I was able to build a pharmacy career I enjoy.
Being a pharmacist provides an array of career options. Pharmacists can work in hospitals, ambulatory care settings, compounding, long-term care, the pharmaceutical industry, the government, or academia. A degree in pharmacy allows some pharmacists to become clinical specialists in areas like ambulatory care, cardiology, infectious disease, critical care, or pediatrics. Being a pharmacist is a job that provides lifelong learning, in a field that is constantly evolving to improve people鈥檚 health.
I have so many wonderful memories from 麻豆传媒and pharmacy school. If I had to pick just one it would be the amazing [advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE)] I did in Granada, Spain. A group of us had the opportunity to spend 6 weeks living with host families in Spain. During that time, we attended classes at the University of Granada and learned what pharmacy school looks like internationally. We also spent time in retail pharmacies, hospitals, and research labs while exploring the history of Granada.

Agreements
The 麻豆传媒 has made a strategic decision to develop a global outreach beyond routine faculty-led travel courses or using the services of third-party providers. We don't hold empty agreements with other universities or institutions; the agreements we have signed in Spain and Morocco involve real partnerships, such as investing in outfitting new labs, developing exchange programs in health care professions, and sharing resources and faculty.
Lecture Series
The Center for Global Humanities at the 麻豆传媒 is dedicated to exploring the human condition in the 21st century. Lectures are held on UNE's Portland Campus for the Health Sciences and are streamed live on the internet. All events are free and open to the public.
