AIHP is pleased to announce that it awarded AIHP Student Certificates of Recognition to 17 students during the 2020–21 academic year.
The purpose of the Student Certificate of Recognition Program is to recognize and encourage superior achievement in historical study or activities by pharmacy students. A Student Certificate of Recognition typically is awarded to the student earning the best record in a course or unit mainly devoted to pharmaceutical history, as judged by the class instructor. To accommodate schools that do not offer such a course, a Certificate of Recognition may also be awarded to a student who best carries out some other type of historical activity (e.g., historical essay, collecting or curating pharmacy artifacts, organizing historical tours or activities, etc.).
Certificates are awarded upon the recommendation of, and nomination by, faculty members.
Congratulations to the following recipients of Certificates of Recognition in 2020–21:
