My education through the School of Pharmacy is the foundation of which any professional success I have achieved is based. Graduating from the School of Pharmacy provided me the opportunity to pursue a career as a pharmacist and prepared me well. I continually benefited from the mentorship of faculty members long after graduation and for my entire career.
— Bruce Scott
Former President at Medco Health Solutions
The first decade of the 2000s was an amazing time for drug discovery. The training that I got at the University of Wisconsin and the School of Pharmacy really prepared me to ride that wave and to be part of it as a scientist, as an inventor, and as a company founder.
