“When I talk with students who graduated, they all say the same thing: I view health and my interactions with patients differently now than I used to. I understand more about the person because of this combination of the natural sciences that Creighton’s health sciences programs bring.”
—Tom Lenz, PharmD | Professor and Program Director, Graduate School
