Welcome!  It is a pleasure to have you browse the web site of the Feik School of Pharmacy at University of the Incarnate Word.

As you look around, take note of our theme ... “CHANGING THE FACE OF HEALTH CARE IN SOUTH TEXAS.”

San Antonio is fortunate to have a naturally diverse population that contributes to its rich heritage and spectacular mixing of cultures. It is truly the new melting pot of America.  For all of its existence, University of the Incarnate Word has nurtured diversity among its students.  The School of Pharmacy continues that mission.

Additionally, as the School of Pharmacy moves into the community with educational activities and caring students, we expect to change the faces of our patients, partners, and friends into smiles of cooperation and understanding about medications. as we learn how to help serve this community.

In keeping with the mission of the University the School of Pharmacy provides a educational experience that embodies professionalism by:

• Supporting diverse learning styles
• Promoting integrity and high ethical standards
• Promoting empathetic attitudes that contribute to the well being of the patient
• Developing forward-thinking practitioners
• Fostering principles of leadership relative to the profession, the community, and the nation
• Imparting self-education techniques for continued ease of learning
• Teaching economic conservation
• Embracing healthy lifestyles that promote whole health—physical, mental, spiritual.

Visit us often to come along on this journey of discovery, development, and accomplishment!
