HOW CAN YOU IMPACT our next 100 years?
As Idaho ' s leader for health professions education, the Idaho State University College of Pharmacy continues its 101 year legacy of educating caring and competent pharmacists. Celebrating monumental improvements to patient care, expanding research endeavors and growing programs to meet today ' s workforce and industry needs, the ISU College of Pharmacy appreciates your support for our next 100 years.
Three unique ways you can Leave your Legacy:
Student Scholarships Practice Transformation Initiatives Endowed Professorships/ Chairs
Scholarships One of the exciting new initiatives is the ISU scholarship campaign, with a goal of raising $20 million over the next two years. We are already over $17 million! As part of this campaign, the College of Pharmacy ’ s focus is to support scholarships for all students, with a special emphasis on our first-generation students.
Endowed Professorships/Chairs Another initiative is to enhance our teaching and research missions through seeking endowments for professors or academic chairs. Our goal is to secure at least one endowment for each of our academic departments Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmacy Practice and Administrative Sciences, and Clinical Psychopharmacology. The purpose of endowed professors/chairs is to recruit and retain faculty with outstanding scholarly records who will provide scholarship and leadership that enriches the department, the College, and the University. Practice Transformation Initiatives We will also be focusing on funding our initiatives to transform practice. We will continue to pursue opportunities for pharmacists as our scope of practice expands, most recently brought about by our efforts to control the COVID pandemic. Similarly, we will pursue opportunities for prescribing psychologists in alignment with our offering of the MS degree in clinical psychopharmacology. Foundations in advocacy, education, research, and service will guide our pursuit of these opportunities.
