Program Requirements

Joint Pharm.D./MBA

For the joint Pharm.D./MBA with pharmaceutical industry concentration program, up to 18 credit hours can be shared between both degree programs through the MBA concentration (12 credit hours) and pharmacy electives (6 credit hours) areas. Through this joint program, students will meet the degree requirements for both programs with a maximum of 181 credit hours depending on an applicant’s course history. Any course waivers will reduce this maximum number.

Up to 6 credits of foundation or core MBA courses can be used as elective credits within the pharmacy curriculum thus reducing the pharmacy coursework to 145 credit hours. Additionally, the coursework that a student takes as part of the pharmacy curriculum will be counted to satisfy the 12 credit hours of concentration coursework required of the MBA curriculum, thus reducing the MBA curriculum to a minimum of 18 (36 maximum) credit hours.
