A Tradition of Innovation

We’re known for two things: being bold and innovative in all that we do. Our proud tradition comes alive daily through students, alums, faculty, and staff—working together to provide innovative education, conduct pioneering research, deliver cutting-edge clinical practice, and improve public health.

IMPACT REPORT

Our students, faculty, staff, and alums are among the world's brightest and most dedicated health professionals and scientists. From Tokyo, Japan, to London, Kentucky, we’ve committed to transforming patient-centered care. We continually rank as a top-ten institution, and our research funding has doubled since 2012. Our impact report highlights just a few of the many wins of our pharmacy family.

celebrating 150 years Our History

Founded in 1870, just five years after the University of Kentucky, what is now the UK College of Pharmacy began as the Louisville College of Pharmacy, an independent institution modeled after the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy.

After more than a decade, faculty, staff, and students made the permanent move to Lexington.
