Beginning in 2007, Nova Southeastern University's Barry and Judy Silverman College of Pharmacy has hosted an annual Travel Study Program: a world-expanding opportunity that offers a comprehensive understanding of international pharmaceutical practices for all students.

Led by NSU faculty members, this program invites you to spend two weeks out of the summer semester visiting local hospitals, pharmacies, and government agencies internationally. This program also features a cultural component that will immerse you in the region's food, art, history, museums, and theater.

Participation in travel study programs offers students three elective credits within the Pharm.D. curriculum, making it eligible for financial aid. Open to students from other U.S. accredited colleges, this initiative provides a unique opportunity for a global perspective on health care practices.
