School of Pharmacy - White Coat Ceremony

Please join faculty, staff and fellow students from the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Pharmacy in welcoming the Class of 2025 as they dedicate themselves to acquiring the knowledge and skills necessary to enter one of the county's most trusted professions and provide exceptional pharmaceutical patient care.

The White Coat

The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Pharmacy held its inaugural White Coat Ceremony in 1996.

As a universally recognized symbol of health care, the pharmacy White Coat encompasses all aspects of pharmacy and the delivery of pharmaceutical care. For incoming students, receiving the white coat is a reminder of the commitment they are making to an honorable and trusted profession.

The White Coat Ceremony will also be the first time each incoming student recites the Oath of a Pharmacist, which is based upon the Oath of Maimonides and was adopted by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy in 1983.

Wearing the White Coat and reciting the Oath of a Pharmacist provides an early induction into the brotherhood of pharmacy for the Class of 2020.

We hope you will join us on this special day..

Oath of a Pharmacist

"I promise to devote myself to a lifetime of service to others through the profession of pharmacy. In fulfilling this vow:

I will consider the welfare of humanity and relief of human suffering my primary concerns.

I will apply my knowledge, experience, and skills to the best of my ability to assure optimal outcomes for my patients.

I will respect and protect all personal and health information entrusted to me.

I accept the lifelong obligation to improve my professional knowledge and competence.

I will hold myself and my colleagues to the highest principles of moral, ethical and legal conduct.

I will embrace and advocate changes that improve patient care.

I will utilize my knowledge, skills, experiences, and values to fulfilling my obligation to educate and train the next generation of pharmacists.

I take these vows voluntarily with the full realization of the responsibility with which I am entrusted by the public."
