Description
Pharmacy Community College Connect (PC3) is a five-week summer program hosted by the University of Michigan College of Pharmacy in Ann Arbor. It is designed to encourage students attending community and tribal colleges to pursue pharmacy education. Participants commute to the Ann Arbor campus or Keweenaw Bay Ojibwa Community College if they live in the Upper Peninsula. The program's long-term goal is to increase the number of pharmacists who provide patient care, especially in underserved communities. The program includes a stipend, job shadowing, pharmacy coursework, mentoring, and more.
