Bachelor in Pharmacy

Welcome to the Fred Wilson School of Pharmacy at High Point University in High Point, N.C. Our faculty and staff train clinicians who are dedicated to patient care in all settings and possess the skills and knowledge to practice pharmacy at the highest level possible. Our educational model includes a focus on the basic pharmaceutical knowledge and skills necessary to successfully make quality critical decisions combined with clinical training in various settings.

HPU School of Pharmacy will utilize a closely integrated basic and clinical science curriculum to promote student application of the full range of skills necessary to provide patient-centered pharmaceutical care. Our teaching methods will utilize evidence-based techniques that promote long-term learning and expand the ability to synthesize the rapidly changing knowledge in healthcare.

In 1924 High Point College opened as a cooperative venture between the Methodist Protestant Church and the City of High Point. The campus consisted of three partially completed buildings, there were nine faculty members, and student enrollment was 122. Today the University has 122 buildings, is attractively landscaped, the full-time faculty numbers nearly 300, and approximately 4,600 students are enrolled in a wide variety of daytime, evening, and summer programs. Much has changed over the years. Yet the mission of High Point University may still be best expressed in the words of its founders more than nine decades ago: “to help us to appreciate and to love our own, to know our needs and opportunities, and to make ourselves more efficient servants of Christ.”
