Pharmaceutical Engineer Colleges

New Jersey's Science and Technology University

• A master's degree in pharmaceutical engineering is available in the York Department of Chemical Engineering at New Jersey's Science and Technology University. Course work includes principles of pharmaceutical engineering, pharmaceutical unit operations, principles of pharmacokinetics and drug delivery, pharmaceutical facility design and pharmaceutical reaction engineering. Students may opt to complete a master's thesis rather than take six elective credits. While enrolled, students can choose to select a research project with one-on-one faculty assistance. Applicants must have a bachelor's degree in chemical or mechanical engineering with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 or higher. A grade point average of 3.0 or higher is also required for graduation. The school offers a Ph.D. program in chemical engineering for students who wish to further their education.

University of Michigan

• Select from a variety of pharmaceutical engineering programs at the University of Michigan. Students just beginning their studies may be interested in the school's five-year bachelor/master dual program where the two degrees are achieved concurrently. The school also offers a separate Master of Engineering degree in pharmaceutical engineering and a certificate of advanced studies in engineering to professionals already in the pharmaceutical engineering field. Students at the undergraduate level declare a major in either biomedical engineering or chemical engineering. Course work includes heat and mass transfer, applied chemical kinetics, polymer science, and engineering and chemical process simulation.

University of Washington

• Housed within the Department of Bioengineering, the University of Washington's master's of pharmaceutical bioengineering program is conducted at night over approximately three years. Classes include preclinical development, pharmaceutics, process development, molecular biotechnology, drug discovery and design, systems biology, bioinformatics and molecular targets. Students can choose a capstone project or professional paper under the guidance of a faculty advisor. Applicants must have a bachelor's degree in a science, engineering or public health field. Any applicants with unrelated bachelor's degrees are evaluated if the applicant has two full years of work experience with a pharmaceutical company. A minimum grade point average of 3.0 is required for the last 60 credit hours on the applicant's transcript.
