Student Clubs

Do you have an interesting hobby that you’d like to share with others? Have an idea about how to involve your fellow students and enrich their education? APSA is committed to providing a variety of ways to help students enjoy the most out of their time in pharmacy, and we think that creativity and physical activity are excellent ways to ease the burden of a heavy course-load.

The Canadian Society of Hospital Pharmacists (CSHP) student branch advocates for safe medication use in healthcare settings. They host events like symposiums and provide support for students during hospital rotations and employment. In the upcoming school year, they plan to focus on drug information, mental health, and fundraising for Stollery Children’s Hospital. For any inquiries about CSHP, feel free to reach out to piatkows@ualberta.ca.
