History

Campbell University School of Pharmacy, located in Buies Creek, NC, was founded in 1986 by Dean Ronald Maddox. Designed to serve the community of rural North Carolina, it was the first United States pharmacy school to have opened in 35 years. In 2009, the school's name was changed to Campbell University College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. According to Chairman Bob Barker, "The Board of Trustees feels the name change reflects the University's commitment to educating not only qualified pharmacists, but other health sciences professionals in our community.This name change will provide the foundation to implement future health science programs as the University looks to the future." Today, the school is one of the 6 campuses of Campbell University and enrolls 435 PharmD students each year. Additional courses are taught at the School of Pharmacy Department of Clinical Research located on Campbell University's RTP campus.

The Campbell University College of Pharmacy and Health Services launched a physicians assistant program in August 2011.

Centers and Programs

The College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences consists of four different centers that each have their respective programs. The four different centers are: the Clinical Research Center, the Drug Information Center, Science Education Outreach, and the Wellness Institute.

The Clinical Research Center (CRC) is used to provide training of students and fellows in the design, conduct and reporting of clinical studies. It also provides scientific resources to support various clinical studies conducted within CPHS and to collaborate with government, pharmaceutical, academic and hospital/medical institutions to support and conduct patient-oriented research.

The Drug Information Center (DIC) was established in 1987 with a grant from GlaxoSmithKline. The director of the DIC is PharmD Connie Lee Barnes and the associate director is PharmD Valerie B. Clinard. The DIC provides experiential training for student pharmacists and a service to health care professionals. The DIC has many purposes to the CPHS like:

• To serve the health professions community by answering drug-related questions
• To provide a learning center for student pharmacists in drug information skills
• To aid in the promotion of CPHS by offering drug information services throughout the state
• To promote the profession of pharmacy

The DIC also provides services that are free of charge. These services consist of:

• Provision of drug information and supporting documentation to questions posed by health care practitioners
• Provision of consultative services in the areas of adverse drug-reaction reporting, formulary management and education seminars
• Participation in pharmacy-related research

The Science Education Outreach is mainly for middle school and high school students. This program exposes these students to various career options in science. Another effort of this program is to help better middle school and high school teachers to improve their teaching methods. This program runs workshops and clinics so that the teachers will learn how to better teach their students.

The Wellness Institute program helps middle school students better learn about their health and habits and how they can make better choices to be healthier. This program also helps with consumer education, health care professionals, and the diabetes care project.
