Howard University College of Pharmacy International Rotations program prepares student pharmacists to become global citizens who value diversity and culture in healthcare.

This program offers structured, two-way international training opportunities that combine mentoring with hands-on practice experiences, all designed to positively impact patient care and clinical outcomes both locally and globally.

Beyond rotations abroad, HUCOP faculty lead research projects around the world and actively involve student pharmacists in their international work. Through full cultural immersion, students gain the knowledge and awareness needed to deliver culturally competent care and bring a global perspective to their daily practice as pharmacists.
