A new program is a big step, especially for those who have been out of school for many years.  We understand your hesitation, and want help you to choose wisely, whether it be to take a course, a larger program of study or even no program at all…at least for the time being!  Our capable staff can help to develop a personalized program that will best serve your needs.  Our students love the flexibility that comes with hybrid courses: on-site, by distance, or a blend that works for you.

You can take a single course
Unsure about whether you are ready for a graduate program?  Need to brush up on only one topic?  It is quick and easy to enroll for a single course, whether on-site or on-line.  You do not need to be formally enrolled in a graduate program.  We can typically enroll you up to a week before the course starts by simply filling out a form.  Often potential students take a course or two to “try us out”, before committing to a graduate degree or certification program.  All of these units can then be used later if you choose to go on to a graduate program here or elsewhere. 

You can receive a certificate
Our certificates are designed to increase your knowledge in certain areas key to medical product development. About four courses in length, each certificate can stand alone as a true graduate endpoint, or can be rolled forward after completion into the MS or doctoral program. 

You can receive an MS degree
The MS is a significant milestone in your career development that ensures a comprehensive overview of regulatory tools and thinking.  Course concentrations in regulatory science and the management of drug development are now availavle to better meet your needs.  Your MS program will be unique for you, with lots of flexibility to do it your way, at your pace and wherever you may live. 

You can receive a doctoral degree
This unique program allows participants with strong industry experience and demonstrated academic performance to complete specialized high level studies focused on  policy, research methods and global strategy.  Often the program that follows an MS for students with superior aptitude, it can also be entered without MS background, with additional coursework as part of the mix of experiences. 

So what path is right for you? If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact our staff. We would be happy to answer any questions you might have and tell you more about the program.
