Experiential Programs

Abilene The concept for expanding the TTUHSC pharmacy program into Abilene first came about in 2004 when a group of community and private organizations approached Jerry H. Hodge School of Pharmacy with a vision to offer four-year pharmacy education and research to their community and region.

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board approved the expansion in January 2006 and the school began making plans for extending its Pharm.D. and Post-Graduate Pharmacy Education programs into the Texas Big Country. Since that time, a 40,000 square-foot campus has been constructed and classes began in August 2007.

The Abilene regional campus supports all four years of the Jerry H. Hodge School of Pharmacy's Pharm.D. program. It enrolls 40 new students each academic year and increased the Jerry H. Hodge School of Pharmacy's total class sizes from 90 students to 130.
