BPS Faculty/Student Research Panel (Virtual)

Join us to ask questions, discover new opportunities, and get excited about participating in research!
In-Person Info Sessions and Q & A
Join us for an engaging in-person information session that will showcase the URI Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) and Bachelor of Science (BPS/Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Science) programs, along with a student-led tour of Avedisian Hall. The session will kick off at the Robert J.
