Senior Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) students were surveyed by questionnaire to glean information about academic training, and residency, fellowship, or practice positions sought after graduation. There were 227 (27 percent of total surveys) responses. Of those responding, 71 percent were Bachelor of Science graduates, 29 percent were Pharm.D. primary degree students, and 18 percent completed a residency either before or during Pharm.D. training. Fifty percent had an average of three years of clinical services work experience prior to their Pharm.D. education. There was strong interest in postgraduate education by respondents: 41 percent for residencies and 26 percent for fellowships. Of resident candidates, 18 percent and 49 percent, respectively, considered research essential and important to the program. Areas of greatest interest in residencies were general medicine, infectious disease, and pharmacokinetics. Important to the selection of a fellowship was the research proposal and concurrent clinical practice. Pharm.D. students are interested in postgraduate training as residents (60 percent), fellows (38 percent), or both (2 percent). Desired activities are research and clinical practice independent of residency or fellowship interest.
通过问卷调查对药学博士(Pharm.D.)高年级学生进行了调查,以收集有关学术培训以及毕业后寻求的住院医师培训、专科培训或实践岗位的信息。共收到227份回复(占总调查数的27%)。在这些回复者中,71%是理学学士毕业生,29%是药学博士初级学位学生,18%在药学博士培训之前或期间完成了住院医师培训。50%的人在接受药学博士教育之前平均有三年临床服务工作经验。回复者对研究生教育有浓厚兴趣:41%希望参加住院医师培训,26%希望参加专科培训。在住院医师候选人中,分别有18%和49%认为研究对该项目至关重要和重要。住院医师培训最感兴趣的领域是普通医学、传染病和药代动力学。专科培训选择的重要因素是研究计划和同步临床实践。药学博士学生对毕业后参加住院医师培训(60%)、专科培训(38%)或两者都参加(2%)感兴趣。期望的活动是独立于住院医师培训或专科培训兴趣的研究和临床实践。
