Pharmacy Technician - North Dakota State College of Science

Pharmacy Technician from North Dakota State College of Science is a Campus Associate Pharmacy degree that prepares you for a Healthcare career. The Pharmacy Technician program is designed to prepare students for careers performing and managing the technical distributive functions in pharmacies and pharmacy-related industries. By doing so, pharmacy technicians allow the pharmacist to concentrate on clinical services such as patient consultation, physician intervention, drug therapy analysis and other clinical topics. The pharmacy technician performs those functions of pharmacy practice that do not require a pharmacist?s professional education or judgment. Our programs are fully accredited by the American Society of Health Systems Pharmacists. Students receive classroom, laboratory and practical experience covering community and institutional practice, sterile product preparation, manufacturing, inventory management and record-keeping, medical terminology and drug products. Students also take other courses in communications, writing, psychology and speech that will help provide them with the skills to advance in their careers. Upon completion of our program, the graduate will be eligible to become registered with the North Dakota Board of Pharmacy (which is required for employment) and are eligible for national certification. Most pharmacies employ several technicians, and opportunities within the field are steadily increasing. Pharmacy technicians are found in community, hospital and home health care pharmacies, as well as research institutions, manufacturers and other industrial settings. Our graduates have enjoyed 100-percent job placement since our program?s inception in 1994. View more details on North Dakota State College of Science .
