Study Abroad Programs for MCPHS Students

Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences has entered into affiliation agreements with the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Trinity College Dublin; the University of Havana, Cuba; the Catholic University of Santa Maria, Arequipa, Perú; and the Niigata University of Pharmacy and Applied Life Sciences, Japan. The agreements provide a framework for faculty and students to engage in individual research and study projects. In recent years, students have presented scholarly posters in Cuba, taken summer elective courses on tropical medicine and medical anthropology in Perú and participated in service learning trips to Guatemala during summer break. The College has also hosted pharmacy students from Perú and Spain, as well as guest faculty from Ireland, Cuba and Japan.
