Degree Programs and Certificate
Greetings!
The U-M PharmE program is the first graduate degree-granting program in Pharmaceutical Engineering in North America. It emphasizes interdisciplinary education and practical training in the research, development and manufacturing of health care products for the 21st century with strong support from a variety of pharmaceutical, medical device, biotechnology and related companies.
We have both regular faculty members from the Colleges of Engineering and Pharmacy at U-M as well as adjunct faculty members from many industries and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) participating in the education and training of our students. There is an active student chapter of International Society of Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) at U-M that provides many opportunities for our students to interact with their academic and industrial colleagues in a variety of social and professional activities.
Our graduates are well sought after by many companies because they believe in our innovative, cross-functional and practical curriculum and the quality of our students. In the near future, we intend to build on our excellent concentrations in Pharmaceutical and Biopharmaceutical Development and Manufacturing to add a new concentration track in Clinical Development and Engineering based on suggestions from our industrial and clinical colleagues.
I look forward to working with you and our friends and colleagues in the PharmE program so that we can achieve an even higher level of excellence in the foreseeable future.
