The City of Portland was chosen for the OSU College of Pharmacy because it is the hub of health care delivery and business enterprise in the state. While remaining the “Oregon State University College of Pharmacy,” the college would strengthen its joint affiliation with the Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU), the state’s only academic health sciences center.

The College is on 6 floor of a high rise building in South Waterfront. A lobby is at street level next to a retail Pharmacy. The main entry to the College is on Floor 4. The College had 4 levels of laboratory floors over lecture halls, conference rooms, offices and support.
