Interested students will earn both the Doctor of Pharmacy and the Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the completion of required course work. These two programs will run concurrently.
The Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences provides students with a broad overview of the scientific disciplines supporting drug discovery and development and engage students in discussions and mentor-guided research projects focused on bioanalysis, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacology. Students will develop applied basic science research skill sets to advance their career opportunities within the biomedical or pharmaceutical industries, or complement their clinical degree to explore collaborative research opportunities within academic medical centers or other health care systems.
