Find Pharmacy Jobs At The Healthcare Career Center

Pharmacy school is challenging because the program is rigorous and time-consuming. Many students may feel they have no time to do anything else other than study and attend classes. However, from my own experience, it is possible to find time for obtaining a Masters in Business Administration (MBA). Having an MBA can lay the foundation for combining business management with pharmacy practice. It can broaden your skill set and your viewpoint when working in the pharmacy. How is it possible to attend pharmacy school and concurrently complete an MBA program? An online MBA program is one solution for completing both degrees. 

There are many MBA programs to choose from. However, the healthcare management program is especially useful for pharmacists. Healthcare management is one of the MBA programs offered by Davenport University where I am obtaining my MBA. Many universities have online programs for students who have constraints in attending classroom lectures. Online programs are a convenient way to earn an MBA degree while in pharmacy school.
