Chapter Information
The AAPS-University of Tennessee, Memphis Student Chapter was
initiated in July 2003 when it split from the umbrella Southern
Regional Student Chapter. The chapter has about 40 members,
divided into four active committees working toward various
goals. The chapter aims to foster the professional development
of its members, advance the community’s awareness of professions
in the pharmaceutical sciences, and promote social growth and
interaction among its members. The members meet monthly to
review and plan chapter activities.
The chapter has successfully organized regional scientific
meeting (AAPS-Southern Regional Discussion Group), PharmForum in
2004 and 2007. The chapter has also conducted numerous socials such
as picnics, potluck lunches, dinners and outreach programs.
