Conference: Student Opportunities | NJPhA 156th Annual Convention

NJPhA is holding our 156th Annual Meeting and Convention at Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City on October 24th and 25th. On Saturday, October 24th, we will have a full day of programming for students. We have worked hard to develop a wonderful schedule of events, and we hope Wilkes students will join us!
The morning session will consist of educational and networking opportunities, presentations on financial concerns for young pharmacists, and a presentation by Rutgers Industry Fellows. During the lunch break, students are encouraged to present their research via a poster session. This research will also be published in the next NJPhA Journal! This offers students a valuable opportunity to be published! After lunch the students will join the pharmacists to hear a wonderful keynote speaker, Nimit Jindal, Senior Health Policy Advisor, U.S. Senate- HELP Committee, and a panel on legislative issues in the pharmacy industry. The final event of the day is the Student Challenge: 2026 NASPA Student Pharmacist Self-Care Championship where teams from each of the schools of pharmacy compete for bragging rights and the champion’s title!
I am happy to answer any questions that you may have. The cost for students to attend is $75 for NJPhA Members and $85 for Non-NJPhA members. The extra $10 grants the students a year of NJPhA Membership. Please submit your poster entries soon!
