Program Description
-------------------
Program Description:
At MCPHS, we understand that human lives depend on the skills of clinical researchers. We developed this full-time STEM program to provide you with advanced academic training in the science of standards as well as the latest approaches to clinical research investigations. If you are interested in pursuing a career in clinical research coordination or clinical research monitoring, this program will provide both a strong foundation and a competitive edge. You will graduate from the program equipped for positions in federal or state healthcare agencies, clinical research organizations, managed-care institutions, hospitals, and other health-related organizations. While especially advantageous when paired with a PharmD degree, this rigorous graduate experience provides significant value to anyone in a field where knowledge of good clinical practice, regulatory standards, and the safety and efficacy of regulated products is crucial. A baccalaureate degree or equivalent professional degree is required for admission.
