Program Description The University of Utah is nestled in the Wasatch foothills, overlooking Salt Lake City, the Great Salt Lake, and the West Desert. Behind the U, up into the Wasatch Mountains, lies some of the world's best biking and hiking trails, rock climbing, and ski and snowboard terrain. Within 40 minutes of campus, there are seven (7) mountain resorts that receive in upwards of 500 inches of the driest snow on earth -- it's the reason why, Utah powder is widely known as "the greatest snow on earth." We work hard, but we play even harder.

The Department of Molecular Pharmaceutics continues to lead the way to define and expand the scientific avenues for improving therapy by improving the delivery of drugs and therapeutic agents; understanding the fate of drugs in the body; and focusing on drug delivery from packaging to release of therapy.

The Department of Molecular Pharmaceutics offers a Ph.D. degree program through the Graduate School of the University of Utah. The program seeks to prepare graduate students to function independently, competently and technically in a variety of settings including academic, research, administrative, business management, legal, regulatory and investment career tracks. This goal is accomplished through formal didactic courses, seminars and journal clubs, laboratory research rotations, and dissertation research. Every attempt is made by the faculty to help the student complete the program in a timely fashion. Typically, students graduate within 5 years of entering the program, although the nature of some projects and approaches requires a longer time commitment for full completion of the dissertation work.
