 Andrés Malavé, Ph.D., COP Dean

I am pleased to welcome you to our College of Pharmacy website. Whether you are a prospective student, alumnus, friend of the college or just interested in what we do, I hope this website serves as a useful source of information.
The COP offers a challenging professional degree program of study in pharmacy that emphasizes the pharmaceutical sciences and patient-centered care. Presented with the use of innovative teaching modalities and the newest technology, the curriculum is designed to prepare pharmacy graduates for life-long learning and leadership capabilities as medication therapy managers in our nation’s healthcare system.  You will find our programs conducted by an exceptional, talented faculty committed to your education.  They, themselves, are agents of change in such diverse fields of research and practice as genomics, drug development, informatics, and pharmacotherapy. Once you browse our website, I am confident you will join me in becoming engaged with our COP and with Nova Southeastern University.

Pediatric Pharmacotherapy focuses on the unique therapeutic needs of neonates, infants, children, and adolescents. Patients in these age groups offer challenges distinct from those of adult patients. Drugs behave differently in this population—medications may not be absorbed, distributed, metabolized, or eliminated in the same manner as in adults, causing increased or decreased efficacy or safety. For a long time, pharmacotherapy educators have been without a source for concise pediatric-specific pharmacotherapy information. More >>

"Get the Residency" book authored by Dr. Joshua Caballero.
Book cover - Caballero

Competition for pharmacy residency positions has intensified greatly in recent years, with a national average of only 60% of candidates able to secure one. Based on the results of an innovative course pioneered at Nova Southeastern University (NSU) that helped over 80% of enrolled students obtain a residency position, the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) commissioned the book, Get the Residency. This is particularly notable as ASHP is the accreditation body for pharmacy residencies nationally, thus adding considerable cache to this NSU faculty-edited (and predominantly authored) reference. Publication of Get the Residency is the result of both the student-centered approach demonstrated by NSU faculty as well as their nationally recognized expertise.
