Specifically, the Fellow will assist in the development, coordination, and delivery of pharmacy care skills labs, OSCEs, didactic lectures, pharmacy practice activities, and assessments to engage and develop PharmD students. The Fellow will engage in population health-related activities with current faculty and partners of the College. Research and scholarship can be accomplished through a project to advance ambulatory care pharmacy practice in conjunction with one or more partners of the College in addition to exposure to various scholarship of teaching and learning projects undertaken by COP faculty. The Fellow will engage in College-level service with participation on at least one standing committee so as to gain knowledge of, appreciation for, and relevant skills in teamwork and organizational governance.
