CBC administrators told trustees on Thursday that the college had received a $63,588 grant from Texas A&M Health Science Center’s Coastal Bend Health Education Center to help fund the two-year degree program.
CBC was one of numerous community colleges to receive a grant from the Health Education Center.
Texas A&M provides the start-up grants in hopes pharmacy students will transfer to the university’s four-year pharmacy program in Kingsville.
Pharmacy technicians can earn upwards of $13 per hour filling prescriptions under the supervision of a licensed pharmacist, College President Dr. Thomas Baynum said.
