Partnerships
International Partnerships
The School of Pharmacy’s international collaborations expand students’ horizons and prepare them for global pharmacy practice. Partnerships with Houston Methodist Hospital, the University of Nebraska Medical Center, and Walgreens sites in the United States provide students with invaluable exposure to US pharmacy systems and practices.
Additionally, the school’s agreement with Wayne State University Eugene Appelbaum College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences enables student and faculty exchanges, fostering academic collaboration and cross-cultural learning experiences that enrich the educational journey.
Together, these local and international partnerships ensure a comprehensive, transformative learning experience that prepares students to make meaningful contributions to the field of pharmacy on both regional and global levels.
Local Partnerships
The LAU School of Pharmacy (SOP) has cultivated an extensive network of local partnerships to enhance its experiential and co-curricular programs, equipping students for diverse pharmacy practice settings. Collaborations with community pharmacies, hospitals, primary care centers, dispensaries, the Ministry of Public Health, the Lebanese Army Military Healthcare, the Center of Clinical Health Outcomes Research, and non-governmental organizations provide students with hands-on experience across various healthcare environments. These partnerships offer exposure to key practice areas such as community health, hospital care, and public health initiatives, while also extending training opportunities in specialized settings.
To further support pharmaceutical education and research, the School of Pharmacy has strategic agreements with leading industry organizations such as Benta and Algorithm. These collaborations grant Pharm.D. students access to cutting-edge laboratories, advanced manufacturing facilities, and expert mentorship, while faculty members engage in research opportunities that drive innovation and excellence.
