The Mylan School of Pharmacy is one of the ten degree-granting divisions that comprise Duquesne University. The school's first pharmacy class matriculated in September 1925 under the leadership of the founding dean, Dr. Hugh C. Muldoon, and graduated in 1928. In May 2000, the Mylan School of Pharmacy graduated its first entry-level Doctor of Pharmacy class.

The School of Pharmacy is housed in Duquesne University's Mellon Hall of Science, with new administrative, faculty, and student services offices located in the adjacent Bayer Learning Center.^[1]

In April 2004, the School of Pharmacy announced the phase-out of the NTDP program by May 2009. No new students will be accepted after January 2004."^[1]
