Why study for a Pharmaceutical Management Graduate Certificate

The graduate certificate’s narrow focus allows you to dig deep into this specific topic, and start applying your knowledge sooner. It is possible to earn this certificate partially through online courses, and on our NJIT Newark Campus. And whether you take courses online or on campus you’ll learn from NJIT’s distinguished professors and instructors.

Prerequisites

An undergraduate degree in chemical engineering or mechanical engineering, with an undergraduate cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale is usually required. Applicants with: (1) a science degree, (2) an engineering degree in a discipline other than chemical or mechanical engineering, or (3) a GPA below 3.0 but at least 2.8, may be conditionally admitted to the program. Conditions may involve completion of a bridge program designed on a case-by-case basis.

Related Degree Programs

All credits for the Pharmaceutical Management Certificate can be applied in its entirety to the NJIT MS in Engineering Management and MS in Pharmaceutical Engineering or partially to the NJIT MBA or MS in Management.

Take Note

Check the course descriptions for more information. Some course has prerequisites and must be taken in order.
