Who Should Apply?

The MBA in Pharmaceutical Management is intended to serve the needs of those employees who currently occupy or aspire to achieve advanced positions in management, policymaking, and/or stakeholder relations (whether research scientists, the medical profession, consumers, affiliates, partners or subcontractors).

It is assumed that applicants hold at least five years of relevant professional experience.

The Value of the Program to Those Who Enroll

A program of this kind serves several needs. Students:

• Acquire new skills and knowledge that can be applied immediately to improve individuals' job performance and the productivity of their teams, divisions, or organizations.
• Understand the economic, medical, political and technological forces that will help shape the success of pharmaceutical companies in increasingly competitive global markets.
• Learn concepts, terms and languages to improve their ability to understand the needs of and communicate with people both inside and outside of their organizations who are key to positioning a new product in the market or simply "getting the job done" whatever that job may be.
• Create more extensive social networks within and across their organizations, thus easing the flow of information about best practices and innovative solutions to problems that span functional units.
