Develop your clinical services in a real-world community practice setting. PGY1 residents provide care to patients in a community setting with oversight by preceptors.
The University of South Carolina College of Pharmacy has a variety of postgraduate residency and fellowship programs for those seeking advanced pharmacy training and education. Explore our available opportunities below.
We offer several postgraduate programs for those seeking advanced pharmacy training and education:
Residency training is divided into two years. Postgraduate year one (PGY1) programs offer more generalized training, providing residents exposure to a broad range of clinical scenarios. Postgraduate year two (PGY2) programs emphasize a specific area of interest and help lead to specialization in that field. We offer or are affiliated with residency programs in both hospital and community settings.

Administered jointly with Prisma Health Richland Hospital, we offer two PGY1 residencies, and five PGY2 residencies that focus in cardiology, critical care, infectious diseases, internal medicine and pediatrics.
The Tandem Health-USC PGY1 pharmacy residency program aims to develop pharmacist leaders who improve the health of patients within the community, emphasizing those in outpatient rural and underserved settings.
A fellowship is a highly individualized postgraduate program designed to prepare the participant to become an independent researcher. USC College of Pharmacy faculty, along with our partners, work closely with each fellow to provide personalized advising and guidance to ensure a successful, productive experience.
