The 'R' Number

The Pharmacy Residency Programs at UK have graduated over 500 residents, each resident obtaining their own resident or "R" number upon entrance into the program. Both current residents and alumni alike keep their R number close to heart.  The number generates many conversations between UK's alumni as new friends and old use it to distinguish the years of their residency experience at the University of Kentucky.

Annual Resident Homecoming

Every year the UKHC Pharmacy Residency Program hosts an annual Homecoming event for R's and their families! Formerly known as the Pig Roast, this is a celebration that retains all the cherished traditions residents know and love. It's a time to reconnect with colleagues, welcome present members, celebrate the pharmacy residency program, and create unforgettable memories while having fun enjoying activities, food, and drinks!
