College of Pharmacy

Its #GivingBlueday

Your support fuels the future of pharmacy—expanding education into real-world impact.

Providing students with the tools, experiences, and opportunities to thrive beyond the classroom.

Here’s how your support is making a direct and meaningful impact:

• Empowering Innovation: Launching the 3-Minute Thesis Competition*, where PhD students refine critical communication skills and showcase groundbreaking research.
• Breaking barriers: Offsetting out-of-state APPE rotation costs so PharmD students can focus on learning, not financial strain.
• Providing safety nets: Offering emergency funds to students across all programs when they need it most.

Every gift makes a difference. Join us in shaping the future of pharmacy—supporting students, driving innovation, and advancing breakthroughs.

Give today, and help fuel the future of pharmacy!

*3-Minute Thesis Competition was founded by University of Queensland
