Description:

The Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy was founded in 2005. Over the last decade, Gatton College of Pharmacy has grown and matured from a regional to a national presence.

The mission of Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy is to train progressive pharmacists that improve healthcare, focusing on rural and under-served communities. Our curriculum is well-integrated between the pharmaceutical and clinical sciences and produces graduates who are highly competent and competitive in the marketplace in securing jobs, pharmacy residencies, and postgraduate positions in the pharmaceutical industry.

Gatton students have the opportunity to pursue a dual degree and earn a PharmD/MPH or PharmD/MBA, earn a BS in Pharmacy Studies through our degree completion program, and learn to practice patient care as members of an interprofessional healthcare team within the Academic Health Sciences Center at ETSU.

Thirty percent of our students are involved in real world research ranging from cancer studies to prescription opioid abuse, and many pursue the Concentration in Pharmacy Research, a program allowing our students to demonstrate excellence in basic or clinical research.
