 SHADOW DAY EVENT DATES ARE NOW FULL. Waitlist available

Are you interested in a healthcare field, helping others, chemistry, or biology? Have you ever wondered what else goes into being a pharmacist besides what you see at your local community pharmacy? We invite you to join us in a fully immersive student shadow day at our Rockford campus!

Participants will experience:

  • A brief introduction to a career in pharmacy
  • 1st year pharmacy classroom experience
  • Research Lab Experience
  • Active participation in a 2nd year compounding activity working with current pharmacy students in our compounding lab
  • Lunch (provided by the college) with current pharmacy students

There is no fee or cost to participate in a Rockford Shadow Day. Have questions about the Shadow Day experience? Reach out to Paige Rauh at prauh@uic.edu or 815-395-5831.

Make sure to also check out our annual High School Pharmacy Camp and Summer Pharmacy Institute, which also take place at the Rockford campus.

 SHADOW DAY EVENT DATES ARE NOW FULL. Waitlist available

*If you would like to be added to the waitlist, please email prauh@uic.edu. Please include your name, grade level, age, and the best way to contact you in the event a spot opens up.
