USC SCHOOL OF PHARMACY STRATEGIC PLAN 2023-2027

MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Over the past five years, the USC School of Pharmacy community implemented an ambitious and wide-ranging strategic plan that strengthened our capacity to fulfill the growing needs of our dynamic field and the school’s role in spanning the entire pharmaceutical spectrum—from discovery and development to clinical care, regulation, and policy and economics. To build upon this strong foundation, we have updated the strategic plan for 2023–2027 to further enhance the school’s ongoing efforts to transform the face of pharmacy.

Building on a Strong Foundation

While many of the overarching goals and strategies remain consistent with our previous plan, the updated strategic plan leverages and expands on the advances and learnings of the past five years. These include novel, federally funded research initiatives, new collaborations and technological advances cultivated during the pandemic, significant growth of our undergraduate and other educational programs, and a major investment in our core research facilities.

Our people remain our greatest asset and the new strategic plan emphasizes a renewed and expanded commitment to wellness and to diversity, equity and inclusion. This includes a strong focus on developing and nurturing a broad and diverse pipeline of talented new leaders. It is only by empowering new generations that we can achieve a lasting impact.

Thank you for continuing on this journey with us.

MESSAGE FROM THE PROVOST

The USC School of Pharmacy has a strong legacy of education, research, service and partnership. The recent COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that this work is more important than ever—and the school plays a critical leadership role as one of the strongest pharmacy programs in the nation. Over the past three years, USC pharmacists led COVID-19 vaccination delivery for the Los Angeles region, while the school’s health economists, laboratory scientists and regulatory experts analyzed how to effectively deploy scarce resources, pursued breakthrough therapies for COVID and other diseases, and explored ways to speed access to treatments while ensuring safety and efficacy. Coming out of the pandemic, it is clear that the School of Pharmacy must not only ensure the education of future generations of pharmacists, but also deliver scientific research and breakthroughs, and advance the health of people everywhere.

In its updated strategic plan, the School of Pharmacy has charted a course consistent with its mission: transforming how diseases are understood, treated and cured—as well as increasing access to care, improving health policy, and promoting harmonized regulation of drugs and medical devices. This plan captures the forward-thinking ideas and aspirations of one of the world’s leading pharmacy programs.

Provost Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Shelly and Ofer Nemirovsky Provost’s Chair

MESSAGE FROM THE SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT

The USC School of Pharmacy has set a bold course to ensure its capacity to be a leading voice for pharmacy nationally and internationally. I applaud the school’s efforts to expand interdisciplinary collaborations within USC to promote interprofessional education, team-based care and breakthrough discoveries. Building a diverse and well-trained pipeline of talent for all of the health-related professions is fundamental to the future of our nation and our world. Another important element of the revised strategic plan is its emphasis on health equity, wellness, and improvement of healthcare delivery and outcomes. Together we can harness the momentous advances in biological research to improve community health, treat and cure intractable diseases, prepare new generations of leaders, and create a more equitable and sustainable health landscape.

Steven D. Shapiro, MD

Senior Vice President for Health Affairs

USC SCHOOL OF PHARMACY STRATEGIC PLAN 2023-2027

OVERVIEW

Ever since our founding in 1905, the USC School of Pharmacy has advanced the field through pioneering initiatives, excellence in education and service to diverse populations in need. USC remains the only pharmacy school spanning the entire spectrum of pharmaceutical development and clinical practice—from medical discovery to regulatory approaches for safely moving drugs and devices to market more quickly, and from the delivery of care in a wide variety of settings to evaluation of the impact of care on patient outcomes and healthcare costs.

Through this comprehensive, revised strategic plan, we are continuing to build on the firm foundation of our past to raise the science and practice of pharmacy to even greater heights in the future. We will do this by converging disciplines, fostering collaboration, preparing a diverse pipeline of future leaders, and opening novel paths of scientific exploration and policy impact.
