Taylor Corbin

Taylor Corbin '21 | Pharmaceutical Studies

"Being a part of the College of Science and Mathematics more specifically the Pharmacy Program has allowed me to grow in unimaginable ways. Not only have I grown as a student, but the program itself has provided me with a safe space where I can continue to grow as an individual outside of the classroom as well. My professors continue to go the extra mile to provide me with whatever support I need, while also allowing me to dictate my own path and decipher my passions. As I have completed my undergraduate years, what still remains is my drive and determination to continue exploring and learning more as I continue on in the graduate program, which can be accredited to the firm foundation built by the Pharmacy Program."
