Due to increasingly abysmal pharmacy job outcomes, for those who are interested in pursuing a career pivot to computer science/data science/cybersecurity or seeing no light at the end of the PGY-1/2/3/infinity tunnel and want to get out asap, I think this post can be a good start for some of you guys. If you love retail or clinical pharmacy to death, or rather die counting pills by five than writing a single line of code, please ignore this post LOL.
Disclaimer: I am not officially associated with any of these programs below or receiving any financial benefit from any of them, except Georgia Tech OMSCS and OMSA, to which I am admitted for Fall 2020. I understand coding is not for everyone, and I am not trying to push anyone into it either. This will hopefully only serve as a reference for those who are interested in pursuing such direction. The list here will likely not to be exhaustive by nature and will certainly expand in future as more programs become available. Programs selected here can be a bit biased based on my personal opinion, since the meaning of words like "affordable" and "reputable" are subjective after all, so take everything here with a grain of salt. But by all means, almost all of the programs listed below will still be considerably more "affordable" than most pharmacy schools on the market today. I only try to include those that do not differentiate delivery format (online vs. on-campus) on diploma or transcript, AND those I believe, can "guaranteed" high-paying jobs post-graduation. The list is also not meant to be ordered by affordability, program ranking, or employment outcome by any means.
