Welcome to the Lipscomb University College of Pharmacy website. Lipscomb University has a rich history in preparing students to be leaders in multiple career fields and, most importantly, a strong history in preparing students for a life of service. I am excited that we are expanding our legacy and tradition of excellence to the field of pharmacy education. Lipscomb University’s location in Nashville, Tennessee, is an extraordinary asset for our students. Nashville is regarded as the Healthcare Capital of the world thanks to more than 300 healthcare corporations that call the city home and is growing with opportunities everyday.  The pharmacy profession is also growing, and is in the midst of a revolution in healthcare delivery which will result in the improvement of quality of life for millions of individuals. At the center of this revolution is the discovery of and appropriate use of medications. Pharmacists in a variety of practice settings will bear accountability for achieving optimum outcomes for patients. Pharmacy is a service profession built on compassion and commitment to those who have healthcare needs. It is critical that pharmacists, as essential members of the healthcare team, apply Christian principles such as compassion, understanding, and caring into their practices. The College of Pharmacy at Lipscomb University will embrace an environment that emphasizes a commitment to a life of Christian service and ideals. It is an exciting time to be in the pharmacy profession, and Lipscomb University is an exciting place to begin that journey.

We are building an extraordinary new College steeped in the traditions of public service, focused on health care delivery to the public, and a commitment to the principles of Christian service. The College has received candidate status by the Accreditation Council for Pharmaceutical Education.  (For more information on the specifics of that process, go to www.acpe-accredit.org) Please continue to monitor the website for the most current information or call the College of Pharmacy at 800-333-4358, ext 7160, or 615-966-7160. You may contact us by e-mail at pharmacy@lipscomb.edu. We also encourage you to personally visit our campus at any opportunity. Thank you for your interest.
