TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Some Florida A&M University students will head to Ghana Monday night for a new exchange program.

The college of pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences kicked off the first "Advanced Pharmacy Experience" Monday morning.

It's a partnership with students from Ghana studying in the field.

The exchange program focuses on "health equity" in under-served African-American communities, and will teach Ghanian students about the American health system, health disparities and inequities.

Students from FAMU and Ghana will spend four-weeks in each others' countries through this exchange program.
