The PGY1/PGY2/MS Health-System Pharmacy Administration and Leadership Residency program is designed to develop pharmacy leaders by providing the administrative and clinical skills necessary to lead a large health-system pharmacy or other healthcare organization in advancing patient care.

This 24-month program combines a Master of Science in Pharmacy Leadership and Administration from the University of Houston with a rigorous practice residency that includes numerous clinical experiences such as Internal Medicine, Critical Care, Cardiology, Drug Information, and other clinical electives. Administrative experiences include Community Hospital Management, Finance/Budgeting, Human Resources, Informatics, Operations Management, Regulatory Compliance, and Strategic Planning along with several administrative electives to choose from.

Training alongside over 50 clinical pharmacists, 13 management leaders, and 21 other residents, the Health-System Pharmacy Administration resident will have ample teaching opportunities including providing instruction to doctor of pharmacy students. The resident will provide an ACPE-accredited CE program and can participate in an optional teaching certificate program through the University of Houston College of Pharmacy.
