ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ welcomes pharmacy students from the University of Granada

The ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College of Pharmacy is pleased to welcome five pharmacy students who have traveled from the University of Granada (UGR) in Granada, Spain to ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½â€™s Portland Campus to learn and share culture with ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ pharmacy students.

The UGR pharmacy students are enrolled in a Vaccine Preventable Diseases course, and they will also participate in site visits to hospitals, community pharmacies, long-term care pharmacies, specialty pharmacies and biotechnology companies to better understand the healthcare system in the United States.  

"The exchange program between ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ and UGR creates a valuable cultural and academic learning experience for our students, says Gayle Brazeau, Ph.D., dean of ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½â€™s College of Pharmacy. “It allows students to share ideas about healthcare systems, public health and the profession of pharmacy from the unique perspective of each country."
