Alumni benefits
As alumni of the WSU College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, you are automatically part of the CougaRx Nation! As part of our “pharmily,” you are invited to attend our college events and we encourage you to use these opportunities to network with your fellow Coug pharmacists and get to know our future Coug pharmacists. Cougs help Cougs, as our alumni are known to say!
The college now has an Online Continuing Education Center hosted by the World Continuing Education Alliance (WCEA). All pharmacists can access online pharmacy continuing education though the college’s education portal at wsu.wcea.education.
We also encourage you to participate in the CougsFirst! network, the Cougar Athletic Fund, and take advantage of the member benefits from the WSU Alumni Association.
