ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
The Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, established as a program in 2003, has developed a curriculum focusing on the strengths required to prepare students for professional positions in the pharmaceutical production, control, and development sectors of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry or for graduate studies in pharmaceutics, medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, analytical chemistry, medicine and pharmacy. Collaborative interdisciplinary research will be supported by joint faculty appointments shared with other UCI departments. Information about a bachelor’s degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences is available by calling 949-824-4699. The department has a new graduate program in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacology, and other new graduate degree programs currently are under development.
