    Applicants must also provide current resume/CV, one-page Personal Statement addressing their interest in the program, and a Critical Analysis Essay of a DRSc alumni dissertation. 

    USC does not accept credential evaluation reports from outside agencies (e.g., WES, ECE, etc.)

    Admitted students must verify that they have been awarded a bachelor’s-level degree from an accredited institution in the United States or an equivalent degree from an institution outside the United States. Those who received a degree from an institution outside the United States will need to obtain a “Certification of Studies for USC” from the International Education Research Foundation (IERF).

  pgrad_prog_desc: 'The Doctor of Regulatory Science (DRSc) program cultivates research, leadership and inquiry skills for advanced students in the emerging profession of global regulatory science. It is designed to produce graduates with expertise in strategic management, policy development and research assessment who can play leadership roles in the public sector, academia and the medical products industry. Participants in this program will take a set of interdependent courses that extend from a strong core of basic regulatory science course work and additionally focus on three main areas — product lifecycle/risk management, global strategy and policy, and project and personnel management. After students have completed foundational course work, they will participate as a cohort that typically has a two-year cycle of classes and an additional one or two years of dissertation research. The program has been designed to meet the needs of individuals who are already seasoned professionals working full-time outside of the university. The doctoral degree will be administered by the Mann School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences.'
