Program Description
-------------------
Program Description:
The MS Translational Pharmacology program prepares graduates for careers as members of drug development research teams. The program has a translational pharmacology focus – bridging across “the discovery, development, regulation, and use of pharmacologic agents to improve clinical outcome, and inform optimal use of therapeutics in patients.” (ASCPT: What is Translational Medicine). The online MS Translational Pharmacology degree is not a lab-based program.

This 100 percent online program is designed for both recent graduates and professionals interested in a career in clinical and translational pharmacology, specializing in clinical trial design or preclinical toxicology and safety pharmacology studies. The degree is appropriate for healthcare practitioners as well as those having completed a B.S. or graduate degree in pharmaceutical sciences or another bioscience-related field.
