The mission of the Pharmacotherapy Division is to educate and train the future leaders of pharmacy, engage in innovative research, and provide exemplary patient care. Our vision is to be a leader in practice-related education, clinical and translational research, and professional service.

The Division of Pharmacotherapy is one of five divisions within the College of Pharmacy.  The division is unique to other divisions beginning with its physical location 75 miles south of Austin at the Health Science Center in San Antonio.  

Pharmacotherapy's mission is to educate and train the future leaders of pharmacy, engage in innovative research, and provide exemplary patient care. The division is the home base for many students engaged in either a one- or two-year specialty practice residency program or a two- or three-year clinical science fellowship.

David S. Burgess, Pharm.D serves as division head and Leroy C. Knodel, Pharm.D. serves as assistant division head. The division consists of full- and part-time faculty as well as office personnel. Most faculty offices are found in the McDermott Clinical Sciences Building. The division is also home to the Drug Information Service, located within the Briscoe Biomedical Library.
