    University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Reviews

    25 reviews
    I've been enrolled in the Master of Public Service Program. The experience has been wonderful. The content is challenging and enlightening. The coursework despite the challenge, is doable, but you have to put in the work. The lecturers are highly competent and yet still easy to understand. The focus of the coursework is both practical and intellectually stimulating/academic. I'm getting everything out of this program that I'd hope to so far.

    UAMS is a great school with many opportunities to interact with students from different programs (medical, pharmacy, physician's assistant, nursing, etc.). There are many amazing professors within the college of pharmacy. My only complaint is that I have had some professors who are difficult to understand and this has made it hard to focus at times in lecture. There are a lot of student organizations and ways to get involved in the community at UAMS.
    All of the professors are knowledgeable, kind, and are rooting for you! ALl of the professors love what they do and it shows.
