Biotech and Pharmaceutical Management MSc

This leading-edge programme brings business together with biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. It has been crafted by academics and industry experts at the world’s first business school dedicated to health. Taught from a global top 10 university, the Biotech and Pharmaceutical Management MSc offers a unique opportunity to learn from the best in the sector and secure your future employability.

With an ever-growing need for the development of new drugs in response to emerging global medical issues, applying a business mindset to this area of health is increasingly vital. The Biotech and Pharmaceutical Management MSc equips students with managerial tools that are needed to bring biotechnology and pharmaceutical innovations to the highly regulated markets. Moreover, this programme teaches students an advanced level of the interactions between business and science in this field. Bringing together the expertise of both the UCL Global Business School for Health (UCL GBSH) and UCL’s other cross-disciplinary centres including the UCL Institute of Clinical Trials and Methodology, participants on the programme gain crucial insights from multiple perspectives. With content bound together by the pharmacoeconomics discipline, the programme also includes important information on regulations and market access. Bringing this action learning environment to life, students have the opportunity to take an idea for a drug or biotech product from the trials stage to business case.

This programme is taught from UCL’s state-of-the-art bespoke facilities on our UCL East campus, on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in east London. The UCL Global Business School for Health is situated in the Marshgate building with access to hi-tech teaching areas and collaboration spaces, a library, and a refectory.
