Seventy-five students started their pharmacy studies at Creighton University the past two weeks, but they’ll rarely set foot on campus again. They are enrolled in the university’s online pharmacy doctorate program, the only one in the country. Over the next three years, they will take classes and study largely by using the laptop computers each received during a two-week orientation and training period on campus. They will spend a fourth year in clinical training where they live. The program exists mainly for older students who want to make a career change to pharmacy and need the flexibility of an online program because of their families and careers.
