Welcome
The Cooperative Pharmacy Student Association (CPSA) was founded in 2007 by the P3 Students, (Class of 2009). CPSA is a professional pharmacy student organization dedicated to service and professional development. Orientation for P3 students on the Edinburg Campus each Fall is highlighted by the passing of the torch from the P4 Officers to the P3 Class. The Class of 2011 inaugurated the first UT-PA/UT-Austin CPSA Webpage. Welcome to our home page that will feature CPSA news and events.
Message from Faculty Advisor
It is a privilege for me to be able to work with pharmacy students in the capacity of an advisor and mentor. It is deeply gratifying to witness and support their service to the community.
Dr. Lydia Aguilera, BS Pharm, PharmD
Clinical Assistant Professor
University of Texas-Pan American/University of Texas-Austin
Message from the President: I have been given the opportunity to represent the class of 2011 and as a group we have focused our goals to involve academic excellence and services to the community. As professional students, our focus on the community involves goals that consist of mentorship and outreach to students pursuing careers in Pharmacy. We have to remember "what starts here changes the world." JR GARZA, CPSA President
