Davis Pre-Pharmacy Club

Our mission is to expose our members to all aspects of pharmacy as a career, to equip our club members with the tools and knowledge necessary to be admitted to a pharmacy school, and to build lasting relationships that will provide for a mutually uplifting experience. We welcome students from all backgrounds who are interested in learning about a health profession that is rewarding and challenging.

Throughout each quarter, we provide workshops, presentations, and guest speakers to help equip you the knowledge of the pharmacy profession. The tools we provide are essential for students who need advice in their undergraduate years planning their class schedule, extracurriculars, and pharmacy school applications. We provide workshops, such as mock interviews, to better prepare you for the interviews in pharmacy schools. We also provide presentations, regarding Pharmacy school prerequisites, Pharmacy school application, and the PCAT, in order to keep you on track for pharmacy school. And lastly, we provide guest speakers - pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, pharmacy students, and pharmacy school faculty - to inform you the issues behind health-care, address any questions regarding the admissions process, and describe the typical day working in a community, veterinarian, or nuclear pharmacy.

We also provide additional hands-on experience in the field of pharmacy by providing mentorship programs located in pharmacy schools including UCSF School of Pharmacy and UOP School of Pharmacy. Through these mentorship programs, students develop connections with pharmacy students and faculty, which deepen their preparation and appreciation for pharmacy schools. In addition to shadowing pharmacy schools, we provide our mentorship program, located here at UCDavis, PharmBuddies, to pair you up with an upperclassman who will guide your undergraduate years to prepare you for the pharmacy school curriculum. We encourage students to take advantage of these opportunities, so they may better understand the profession and develop connections with those associated with the field.

Lastly, we want to serve as excellent examples of the pharmacy profession by giving back to our communities. Every quarter, we provide several community service opportunities, ranging from setting up to make events possible, planting trees to beautify the community, and raising funds to support a humanitarian cause. Some wonderful examples include volunteering for Relay for Life, setting up events on campus, and raising funds for providing water in Africa via the 1000 Wells Project. We encourage students like you to participate in community service events, in order to become mature, caring, and proactive individuals in the field of pharmacy.
