The University of Memphis is pleased to collaborate with the University of Tennessee College of Pharmacy in offering an Executive MBA program focused on health-system pharmacy.  The degree is awarded by the University of Memphis and is part of the Fogelman College of Business & Economics Executive MBA Program, which has 30 years of experience developing leaders.  Faculty members from the University of Tennessee College of Pharmacy participate in the overall program design and in delivery of the curriculum.  By sharing their collective expertise, the two collaborating universities are able to deliver a program that helps in meeting a documented national need.

This program is designed to prepare pharmacy leaders and managers capable of meeting the contemporary challenges faced by pharmacy departments in hospitals, vertically-integrated managed care organizations, and similar institutions.  It is intended for pharmacists who have completed a one-year (PGY1) pharmacy residency program or who have had at least three years of health-system pharmacy experience.  This 17-month program consists of 41 semester hours of coursework, delivered on-campus at The University of Memphis, with the exception of one on-line class each semester.  Three one-week residential components are also required; these are interspersed throughout the program.
