Northern Kentucky University (NKU) and the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy (UKCOP) have signed an articulation agreement establishing a 3+4 pre-pharmacy and Pharm.D. program, creating a streamlined pathway for NKU students to earn both a bachelor’s degree and a Doctor of Pharmacy degree in seven years instead of the traditional eight.
When Kentucky officials distribute opioid settlement dollars to the counties that need them most, they rely on the best available data.
