Quotes from USC PharmD Candidates
“My time at AiViva has been great. It exceeded any expectations I had. There are many different projects to work on, and thus many different opportunities to grow.”
- Mariam Geysimonyan
“Understanding the role of an industry pharmacist better. For me, I didn't have any prior experience, but I understand, at least more, what the different functional roles would be for a company. In addition, I think Dr. Tang-Liu's mentorship definitely helped with understanding the industry environment as well as workplace manners.”
- Royal Siu
