NTDP Program Overview

Howard University School of Pharmacy is one of the oldest and top technology advanced schools of pharmacy in the United States. The success of the traditional program led to the development of an innovative Non-Traditional Doctor of Pharmacy (NTDP) Program designed for practicing pharmacists. The salient features of the program are highlighted below.

SELF-PACED 
Take courses via the Internet from your own home.
FAST TRACK 
Complete the program in only two years compared to four or five years.
CONVENIENT 
Visit campus only twice throughout the program.
COST EFFECTIVE 
Competitive with other non-traditional Pharm.D. Programs.
FLEXIBLE 
Spring and fall enrollment options.
INTERACTIVE 
Instructor and peer interactions through the Internet.
INTEGRATED 

Incorporates disease state management instruction.

The Howard University Non-traditional Doctor of Pharmacy (NTDP) program normally requires two years to complete. Pharmacists are admitted twice a year as members of a cohort. Cohorts consist of not geographically bounded pharmacists who joined the program at the same time and will progress through it at the same pace. They must complete an application and fulfill all requirements of the program. The NTDP curriculum is learner- and competency-based and incorporates communication, problem solving, and critical thinking in all phases of the program.
