MCPHS University, formerly the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, is a private university in Boston's Longwood Medical Area. It was established in December 1823 by fourteen Boston pharmacists as the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, making it the oldest higher-education institution in Boston according to Wikipedia; sources give slightly different days in December. It received a charter in 1852 and moved to Longwood in 1918. In 1979 it became the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Sciences, later shortened to Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, and in 2013 it legally became MCPHS University. It added a Worcester campus in 2000 and a Manchester, New Hampshire campus in 2002. Its programs include pharmacy, nursing, physician assistant studies and medical and molecular biology.
