Program Description
The Master of Science degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences prepares graduates to contribute skills and mastery of advanced topics in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields in both educational and industry environments. Graduates of the program are trained to develop skills in critical thinking necessary for positions in research, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, academic, and government institutions. The program is delivered in a student-centric format that develops the skills to interpret basic and clinical research through critical analysis to foster lifelong learning. Students are engaged in an inclusive and collaborative learning environment and are trained in an inter-disciplinary environment that provides depth and breadth of knowledge. Opportunities for collaborative research experts in other fields are provided within the structure of the program.
The Master of Science degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences is offered with concentrations in:
Industrial Pharmacy
Medicinal Chemistry
Pharmacology
Pharmacotherapeutics
The program is offered with two options, both leading to a degree of Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences. One option involves original research which culminates with the defense of a thesis (Plan A). The student research is performed under the mentorship of a faculty member with expertise in the student’s chosen concentration.
The second option does not require original research or a defense of a thesis (non-thesis option, Plan B) which culminates in a comprehensive subject-specific exam. Within the non-thesis (Plan B) option, there are opportunities for students to participate in research in a voluntary manner outside of their required course load.
