Objective. To quantify the monetary value of economic contributions of a state-funded college of pharmacy as it pursues its missions of teaching, research, service, and patient care. Methods. An economic analysis was performed by applying the Impact Analysis for Planning (IMPLAN) Economic Input-Output Model to financial and enrollment data of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Pharmacy. Results. A total of $94.1 million was attributed to the college in fiscal year 2018, which included $50.7 million of total direct expenditures by the college, its students, and visitors; the indirect effect of over $17 million; and the induced effect of $26.4 million. The college directly employed 117 full-time equivalent employees and 39 pharmacy residents, and supported 763 additional jobs through the economic activities it stimulated. In addition, the presence of the college and its economic contribution enabled federal, state, and local taxing authorities to collect $12 million in tax revenues to support government and public programs. Conclusion. Demonstrating the economic value of colleges of pharmacy is critical when seeking support from campus administrators, state legislators, charitable foundations, government agencies, and industry.
