Concurrent Ph.D. in Pharmacology & MBA Program

Description

This Penn State program combines concurrent Ph.D. training in Pharmacology and a Masters in Business Administration. There is no career disruption between programs, and skills learned in one program clearly complement the other. For example, students develop the complementary skills of teamwork in the MBA and rigorous independent analysis in the Ph.D. The goal of the program is to provide career opportunities in the developing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.
