Overview

The College of Pharmacy and Nutrition at the University of Saskatchewan develops pharmacy and nutrition professionals and researchers who advance health, drive discovery, and engage with communities. For more than a century, our graduates have strengthened the well‑being of people in Saskatchewan and beyond.

Grounded in principles of respect, collaboration, innovation, integrity, and accountability, we unite the complementary disciplines of pharmacy and dietetics. Guided by Indigenization, decolonization, and equity, diversity, and inclusion, we work toward a health system that is responsive, culturally grounded, and future focused.
