The University of Rhode Island College of Pharmacy offers an accelerated BS to MS (non-thesis) Program in Pharmaceutical Sciences. This program allows driven and high achieving students the opportunity to achieve both a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences and a Master of Science (MS) in Pharmaceutical Sciences in a total of five rather than six years by double-counting up to 10 credits of MS level courses toward the BS degree. This streamlined non-thesis program is a highly efficient means to earn a dual degree in a shortened timeline, and prepares students for advanced careers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n
