Student perspectives on the integration of environmental sustainability and climate Change into the doctor of pharmacy program curriculum
This study reveals that students have a strong interest in learning about the impact of medications on the environment. However, current educational exposure to this topic within the UBC PharmD program is limited, highlighting a gap in the curriculum. Future research should focus on the incorporation of climate change and sustainability into the pharmacy curriculum.
