UWs David Bruch Honored at National Pharmacy Meeting

A University of Wyoming School of Pharmacy faculty member recently was honored for excellence in teaching at the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) Annual Meeting.

David Bruch, an assistant lecturer, was honored as one of the 2016 Teachers of the Year. Each year, AACP recognizes outstanding faculty at regular and associate member colleges and schools of pharmacy.

UW pharmacy students selected Bruch for the award, and UW School of Pharmacy Dean Kem Krueger submitted his nomination to the association.

“I am truly humbled and grateful to receive such an award in a climate where all of my colleagues are so worthy,” Bruch says.

Bruch teaches courses in pharmacy practice, physical assessment and patient/professional interactions.

Bruch received his bachelor’s degree in mathematics/science (1998) and his Doctor of Pharmacy degree (2010), both from UW. After working in a community pharmacy for two years, he joined the UW School of Pharmacy faculty in 2012.
