Advanced Biotherapeutics: Manufacturing and Regulatory Affairs MS 

Master of Science in Advanced Biotherapeutics: Manufacturing and Regulatory Affairs药学院 该项目于2022年秋季与托马斯·杰斐逊大学生物处理研究所合作推出. 

While global companies continue to discover new, small-molecule therapeutic agents, an important paradigm shift to large-molecule, 由于生物技术和生物加工领域的新进展,生物制药产品以及个体化药物(先进的生物治疗药物)已经成为可能. 

Originally focused on protein replacement and monoclonal antibody based therapies, 细胞和基因疗法以及基于信使rna技术的COVID-19疫苗等新疗法的快速开发和生产进一步扩大了市场,也进一步扩大了对熟练和知识渊博的劳动力的需求. 

This expansion affects every aspect of drug development, including manufacturing techniques, analytical methods and regulatory processes. 

亿德体育 and Thomas Jefferson University 

高级生物疗法:制造和法规事务硕士课程解决了在法规事务和生物治疗剂制造过程中受过培训的个人短缺问题. 该学位结合了两个区域机构的优势,为不断增长的生物制剂和生物仿制药制造和开发领域的劳动力发展提供学术联系. 

  • 亿德体育 regulatory affairs (RA) and quality assurance (QA) graduate program provides courses in regulatory science practices, strategies and quality assurance expectations, providing a solid foundation in the practical applications of RA and QA, which is critical to the development and manufacture of biopharmaceutical products. 

  • 托马斯·杰斐逊大学生物加工研究所提供教学和实验室为基础的课程,为学生提供宝贵的开发实践经验, 与生物制药疗法的生产有关的制造和分析过程. 这些课程是在位于Lower Gwynedd的Spring House Innovation Park的最先进的Jefferson Institute提供的, 宾西法尼亚.

这个开创性的硕士学位是本地和全国专业劳动力发展的主要工具. 课程将理论和实际操作的制造过程与强制性法规和质量保证期望的分析经验相结合,这些都是建立和验证良好制造所必需的, 实验室, clinical and pharmacovigilance practices. Starting salaries in this specialized industry start at approximately $90,000.
