The M.S. degree entails an accrual of 36 credits, of which 18 must be graded (9 of the graded credit must be from graduate courses of 500 level or above). In addition, 27 credits must be derived from courses that do not include independent study, seminar, journal club and thesis study.
Master’s Thesis

Under special circumstances and with the consent of the advisory committee, a comprehensive review of a relevant area of pharmaceutical research may be permitted. Each student should work closely with his/her major advisor in order to identify and develop the content of the Master’s thesis and the composition of the supervisory committee (see Appendix C).
