The PhD in pharmaceutical sciences offers you the rigorous grounding in a broad range of disciplines that are critical to your success as a pharmaceutical scientist in academia and industry. We take an interdisciplinary approach to graduate research by combining the aspects of areas such as chemistry, biology, engineering, and economics that relate to pharmaceutical science. PhD students choose a concentration in one of the School's four academic divisions, each of which corresponds to a stage in the drug-development cycle.
